  2. Magnetometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetometer

    Magnetometers can be used as metal detectors: they can detect only magnetic metals, but can detect such metals at a much greater distance than conventional metal detectors, which rely on conductivity. Magnetometers are capable of detecting large objects, such as cars, at over 10 metres (33 ft), while a conventional metal detector's range is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_detector

    This then was the first magnetic induction metal detector, and the first pulse induction metal detector. In late 1878 and early 1879, Professor (of music) David Edward Hughes published his experiments with the 4-coil induction balance. [ 3 ]

  4. Magnetic detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_detector

    The magnetic detector or Marconi magnetic detector, sometimes called the "Maggie", was an early radio wave detector used in some of the first radio receivers to receive Morse code messages during the wireless telegraphy era around the turn of the 20th century.

  5. Inductive sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_sensor

    An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes. This effect can be used to ...

  6. Electromagnetic pulse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_pulse

    An electromagnetic pulse (EMP), also referred to as a transient electromagnetic disturbance (TED), is a brief burst of electromagnetic energy. The origin of an EMP can be natural or artificial, and can occur as an electromagnetic field, as an electric field, as a magnetic field, or as a conducted electric current.

  7. Induction loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_loop

    A different sort of "induction loop" is applied to metal detectors, where a large coil, which forms part of a resonant circuit, is effectively "detuned" by the coil's proximity to a conductive object. The detected object may be metallic (metal and cable detection) or conductive/capacitive (stud/cavity detection). Other configurations of this ...
