Abstract
A method of updating calibration data of a first position detection system adapted to determine the position of an object, is presented. The first position detection system includes a target and a plurality of sensors one of which is mounted on an object and the calibration data including coefficients relating an apparent measured position to an actual position and which can be used to convert an apparent measured position to an actual position thereby to correct for physical imperfections in the first position detection system and enable determination of the actual position from the apparent measured position.
