Abstract

A magnetic detector for detecting a magnetism present in the vicinity of or close to a magnetic wire circumferentially magnetized therein and an electromagnet for generating an A.C. magnetic field on the basis of the magnitude of a Matteucci-effect voltage developed across the magnetic wire when the electromagnet approaches the magnetic wire. A coordinate input device for detecting proximity between the electromagnet and an array of a plurality of such magnetic wires arranged in X and Y directions when the electromagnet approaches the array. A magnetic image sensor for detecting an intensity distribution of a static magnetic field to be detected and present along a longitudinal direction of the wire on the basis of a detection voltage of the wire when a plurality of such electromagnets arranged along the longitudinal direction of the wire are sequentially excited one after another.
