Jana,
I really enjoyed touring your web site. The data you provide is exactly what is needed to compare performance limitations for magnetometers and explain operation. Thanks a lot. Also, I had no idea what a varometer was. What a great way to keep tabs on a flight! As soon as I get a little extra cash I'm hoping to get some of your instruments to play with.

Hi,

Do you have any view over Bosch-Sensortech magnitometers? If so, it would be interesting to place your tests here.

Best regards

Nick

Hi Nick, I have never heard about Bosh magnetometer. Could you provide link to it?

Hi,

Here you are - http://www.bosch-sensortec.com/content/language1/html/index.htm . I'm going to pay attention to their BMI055 6 axix and BMX 9 axis ICs. The compasses are here - http://www.bosch-sensortec.com/content/language1/html/5033.htm

Best regards

Nick

Thank you for the link, it looks promising. Will try to order a sample and compare it with other sensors I have.

Piotrze, jakie są wnioski? :))

Hi Nick

I ordered BMC050 magnetometer and BMG160 gyroscope from Bosh. Will test it when will have it on my desk. After weekend will try to order BMX055, but probably the results should be compareable.

Hi.......I had associated Gaussmeter / magnetometers with measuring of magnetic field-components of EMFs and their health effects etc because of some popular paranormal shows on TV. I also found sites which say every household needs a magnetometer.I had no idea it was a scientiic tool for better purposes. . Turns out advanced magnetometers have their usage in magnetic surveys, submarines detection, UAV, archaeology ,earth sciences and many other fields and the miniaturized magnetometers have been used as compass in mobile phones for quite some time.
