Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for tracking an object's position. One or more semiconductor-based sensors obtain measurements of an energy field associated with the object. A processor applies an algorithm to the measurements to generate one or more values representing a position of the object in a coordinate system. The energy field may comprise a magnetic field, for example. The object may comprise a magnet, for example.
