Abstract: A device has a flexible substrate supporting an array of magnetic sensors exposed to a uniform external magnetic field. One or more controllers receive magnetic sensor signals from the magnetic sensors. The one or more controllers collect reference magnetic sensor signals when the flexible substrate is aligned with the uniform external magnetic field. The one or more controllers collect first polarity magnetic sensor signals in response to deformation of the flexible substrate in a first direction. The one or more controllers collect second polarity magnetic sensor signals in response to deformation of the flexible substrate in a second direction. The magnetic sensor signals establish a profile of the orientation of the flexible substrate with respect to the uniform external magnetic field.

Abstract translation: 器件具有支撑暴露于均匀外部磁场的磁性传感器阵列的柔性基板。 一个或多个控制器从磁传感器接收磁传感器信号。 当柔性基板与均匀的外部磁场对准时，一个或多个控制器收集参考磁传感器信号。 一个或多个控制器响应于柔性基板在第一方向上的变形而收集第一极性磁传感器信号。 一个或多个控制器响应于柔性基板在第二方向上的变形而收集第二极性磁传感器信号。 磁传感器信号相对于均匀的外部磁场建立柔性基板的取向的轮廓。
