| Summary: | Magnetogama is an open schematic hand-assembled fluxgate magnetometer.
Compared to another magnetometer, Magnetogama has more benefit concerning its
price and its ease of use. Practically Magnetogama can be utilized either in
land or attached to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Magnetogama was
designed to give open access to a cheap and accurate alternative to
magnetometer sensor. Therefore it can be used as a standard design which is
directly applicable to the low-budget company or education purposes.
Schematic, code and several verification tests were presented in this article
ensuring its reproducibility. Magnetogama has been tested with two kind of tests: a comparison with two
nearest observatories at Learmonth (LRM) and Kakadu (KDU) and the response of magnetic substance. |
