Abstract: A device includes a cylindrical body having a proximate end and a distal end. A three-axis magnetic sensor is mounted on the proximate end of the cylindrical body. The three-axis magnetic sensor includes an X-axis magnetic sensor sensitive to magnetic fields along an X-axis of the cylindrical body, a Y-axis magnetic sensor sensitive to magnetic fields along a Y-axis of the cylindrical body, and a Z-axis magnetic sensor sensitive to magnetic fields along a Z-axis of the cylindrical body.
