Magnetic Strength sensor for pacemaker users to ensure they are not exposed to highly magnetic environments
Worked on BOM, iterated multiple plans and ran them past my client to find the best design. Will be a handheld device that fits in a pocket nicely and can be taken out to measure both absolute and directional magnetic field environment. Will add other features such as a compass, spirit level, and more.
Change of plans, finding nonmagnetic parts is proving to be too tricky and bordering unsafe boundaries. Will instead opt for a hip-mounted processor and battery unit with wires to sensor.
Completed the schematics and made sure i was using the correct components. I have run into an issue where I haven’t the slightest idea or skill to solder smd components, and my project currently requires one, so i will have to either learn how to do that or find a different component.
