An electromagnetic tracking system is a system that tracks an object in a three-dimensional space using electromagnets. It is also called a magnetic tracking system.
Electromagnetic tracking systems must be calibrated before they can be used.
Magnetic tracking systems are typically expensive.
Examples
Construction
There must be an analog to digital converter (ADC), magnet wire (enameled wire), and a microcontroller.
