Abstract
A magnetic motion sensor, having a mobile magnet that generates an essentially homogeneous magnetic field with a magnetic-field direction, and having a coupling element which is stationary within the magnetic field, and wherein a motion-dependent physical quantity is induced in the coupling element when the magnet moves perpendicular to the magnetic-field direction, and the induced quantity is measured and output by a sampling element.
