Magnetic Field Counter

Magnetic Field Counter: A Comprehensive Sensor-Based Counter

The Magnetic Field Counter application leverages the magnetic field sensor in your device to count changes in the magnetic field. The sensor continuously monitors the magnetic environment, and whenever the magnetic field crosses a predetermined detection level, the counter increments by one.

Key Features

• Versatile Detection Capabilities: You can detect changes in the magnetic field along any of the three axes (X, Y, Z) or measure the overall magnitude of the magnetic field, denoted as |B|.
• Flexible Detection Modes: Choose whether to trigger the counter on a rising or falling edge past the detection threshold.
• AC/DC Coupling Options: Customize your experience with the ability to switch between AC and DC coupling modes.
• Adjustable Measurement Speed: Select from twelve different frequencies ranging from 0.5 Hz to 2 kHz to optimize your measurement speed.
• Reducing Double Counts: Minimize errors with an optional no-count period following each detection event.
• Graphical Representation: Visualize the magnetic field values through an intuitive graph, which also displays the current count.
• Audible Feedback: Optionally receive an audible 'click' sound each time the counter increments for added feedback.

Considerations and Precautions

Magnetic field sensors can vary significantly in terms of sampling speed, resolution, and accuracy across different devices. Therefore, the readings provided by this application should be considered indicative rather than precise measurements.

Important Note: Avoid placing strong magnets near your device, as they can potentially damage the magnetic field sensor or the device itself. If you notice a decrease in performance, simply wave your device around in all three dimensions to help reset the sensor and restore it to optimal working condition.

By utilizing the Magnetic Field Counter, you gain a versatile tool that allows you to monitor and quantify changes in the magnetic field with ease and precision.
