Abstract
An angle sensor comprising a housing () having horizontal and vertical axes, which housing is adapted to receive a magnetic core () such that the core remains in substantially the same plane, e.g. by floating on a liquid (). The core is provided with two orthogonal windings (). In use, an electric field is applied across the vertical axis of the housing, which electric field induces a voltage in the windings, wherein the magnitude of the induced field is dependent on the angle of the magnetic core to the horizontal winding.
