Hello, interesting project! I scrolled through the pages of the site and read the patent, but it is still unclear to me: does the base station rotate the magnetic field (rotates a permanent magnet) or generate electromagnetic fields in different directions, or is the magnetic field of a static permanent magnet somehow overlapping in different directions 1000 times per second?

ps I won't sleep tonight until I understand how it works. :-)

Yes, the base station rotates the magnetic field, though the third option you mentioned sounds very futuristic. We could be a magnet-bender!

Feel free to ask us more questions so we can all sleep soundly tonight :)

My futuristic variant is that around a static magnet there are sections of coils (or a magnetic screens with a Foucault current) with compensation of the magnetic field in the opposite direction.

My last guess before going to bed was that there are three electromagnets facing different directions. They turn on one after another. The magnetic sensor measures each value over synced time. The software calculates the triangulation from these values.

Do you mechanically rotate a large neodymium magnet?
