Abstract: An integrated system of sensors that can be used to detect a direction of an externally applied magnetic field is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system can be incorporated into a compact package that can be used within an electronic device. A processor can use signals provided by the sensor system to provide an indication of the direction of the externally applied magnetic field. In one embodiment, the sensors can take the form of analog sensors such as Hall Effect sensors configured in such a way that the direction of the externally applied magnetic field can be deduced based in part upon detection signals provided by the Hall Effect sensors. In one embodiment, the Hall Effect sensors can be stacked one atop the other in such a way that relative signal strength of the detection signals from the sensors can indicate the direction of the externally applied magnetic field.

Abstract: An adhesive applicator including an adhesive dispenser to provide adhesive at a pressure and a compliant head adapted to rotate about a symmetry axis is provided. The compliant head includes a permeable material to provide the adhesive to an adhesive layer on a top surface of a substrate. The adhesive applicator may include a driver coupled to move the compliant head so that the symmetry axis forms a trajectory on a substrate. An applicator head including a foam matrix having pores with a pre-selected pore diameter and having a compliant surface to accommodate substrate geometry is also provided. The foam matrix is elastically deformable upon contact with the substrate geometry. A method for applying an adhesive layer to a substrate using an adhesive applicator as above is also provided.
