Abstract

A system and method for an improved magnetic sensor for use as a three three-axial sensor (TAS) is disclosed. The TAS provides an optimal sensor, concentric and the three coils are identical, with higher sensitivity resulting, a plurality of layers. More specifically, the sensor is made of multiple layers of printed circuit board (PCB). The multiple PCB layers are stacked according to various geometric shapes to create a sensor that enhances positional awareness. Concentric sensors may be arranged in a cube, stacked squares, or stacked squares decreasing in size to form a pyramid structure.
