Abstract

There is described a position sensor comprising a sensor electromagnetic field generator, a screen arranged to confine the sensor electromagnetic field, and an output. The output is arranged to provide a signal which varies in dependence upon an amount of flux compression of the electromagnetic field resulting from the presence of the screen. The amount of flux compression is related to a position of the screen in relation to the sensor electromagnetic field generator. There is also described a method of detecting a relative position of an electromagnetic field generator and a screen.
