Using Hall Effect Sensors to Track Magnet Position

By Sasan Liaw

Learn how to use Hall effect sensors to accurately calculate an object’s position using magnets! I walk through my design process, what I learned, and how I am applying this technology to high-power liquid rocketry. Includes breadboard prototyping, PCB design, firmware and algorithm development, and sensor characterization.
