Drifting is the most common term for an issue where joysticks detect false inputs — even when no one is touching a controller ...

Visualizing magnetic fields sounds weird ... Basically, it’s just a 12×12 grid of Hall effect sensors wired up to a bunch of analog multiplexers. It’s a complicated bit of routing, but ...

After dealing with years of widespread reports of "stick drift" on the original Switch Joy-Cons, Nintendo watchers have been ...

Innovative inverted pyramid Hall-effect sensors offer improved accuracy and reduced crosstalk, paving the way for ...

A team of researchers has developed a cutting-edge 3-axis Hall-effect magnetic sensor featuring an inverted pyramid structure ...

The Hall effect—first ... when exposed to an external magnetic field, creating a measurable voltage. This sideways flow underpins everything from vehicle speed sensors to phone motion detectors.

It’s something [mircemk] demonstrates, with an Arduino-powered magnetic field strength meter that uses a UGN 3503U Hall effect device. The circuit is extremely simple, comprising the sensor ...

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometers in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance ...

Scientists in Spain have created tiny flower-shaped structures that can boost magnetic fields in a very small area. These ...
