A hall effect sensor is installed directly under the electromagnet. As the banana’s magnet gets closer to the electromagnet, the hall effect sensor’s output voltage goes down.

Linear Hall-Effect Sensor According to the datasheet, SS49E is a linear hall-effect sensor that is operated by the magnetic field from a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. The linear sourcing ...

A giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been observed in a nonmagnetic material for the first time, as reported by researchers from Japan. This surprising result was achieved using high-quality Cd3As2 ...

Hall effect sensors are slowly taking over the world of gaming peripherals, but what are they and do they actually make a difference?

Allegro Microsystems has introduced isolated differential current sensor ICs based on the Hall effect. Accuracy is typically +/-1% from 25 to 125°C, and ...

Using the anomalous Hall effect (AHE), researchers devised an extremely sensitive magnetic-field sensor with low noise.

Even with Hall Effect sensors, I found that sometimes small movements would not be picked up by the controller —sometimes to catastrophic in-game results.

Would you believe it, the ESP32 popular Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip has a built-in Hall effect sensor. Espressif Systems makes the chip, and its ESP32 data sheet has nearly no mention of the Hall sensor ...

More and more keyboards and video game controllers employ Hall effect sensors, but what exactly is this technology? We break it down.
