3.2.2 Sensor Placement

To provide further insight regarding the magnetic field produced by the magnet we will examine the expected variations now by showing the expected response at each of the primary locations. Specifically, we will show centered along the axis of rotation (On-Axis), along the outer edge (In-Plane), and to the Side (Out-of-Plane).

Optimization for each location is possible, and the steps taken to improve overall results will be discussed.
