Aichi Micro Intelligent Corporation is developing magnetic sensing systems that apply the Amorphous MI Sensor, a new magnetic sensor. A wide range of applications making use of the performance of the MI sensor can be anticipated, such as electronic devices, automobiles, and factory automation.

G2 Motion Sensor
AMI602 is a 6-axis motion sensor which incorporates 3-axis magnetometer and 3-axis elements, an amplifier capable of compensating each sensors offset and setting appropriate sensitivity values, a temperature sensor, a 12bitAD converter, an I2C serial output circuit, a constant voltage circuit for power control and a 8032 micro-processor controlling each circuit.

3-axis Magnetic Gyro Sensor
A wide range of applications making use of the performance of the MI sensor can be anticipated, such as electronic devices, automobiles, and factory automation. This section provides various example applications.

Electronic Compass Module
Ultra-small one-package device that senses the geomagnetic field with 2-axis MI Sensors. Azimuth is calculated from the ratio of the size of geomagnetism in the X and Y directions.

Circuit Board Type MI Sensor
MI-CB-1DK can detect very small magnetic field with a noise level of 1 nano tesla. This extreme high sensitivity was made possible by originally designed MI sensor element, together with low noise electronic circuitry.By restricting the band-width to 0.1-1000Hz, this model cancels static magnetic field such as geomagnetism, and respond to only moving ferrous object with high sensitivity.

MI Sensor and Electronic Compass Evaluation Kit
Connects to Windows PC via USB, for easy evaluation of the MI Sensor and electronic compass module.

Attitude detection module
Outputs the attitude (yaw, roll, pitch) of objects in real time, combining a 3-axis magnetic sensor (MI Sensor) and 2-axis tilt sensor.

Computer Graphic Controller
A control unit having AMI601 to detect the unit's attitude and output the data through wireless transmitter. Computer graphic's attitude can be controlled with the unit. Suitable for the applications such as real-time product presentation, on-line shopping presentation and 3 dimensional games.

Milli-Gaussmeter
Using an MI Sensor in its sensing section, the Milli-Gaussmeter is a high precision magnetic field measuring instrument able to measure submilligauss minute magnetic fields. Battery-driven, it can be carried along for hand-held measurements anywhere.

Magnetic Field Compensation Device PalmGauss
Detects external magnetic fields in 3D with high sensitivity MI Sensors, and uses an opposite phase magnetic field generated by the compensation coil to create the desired magnetic field.

Aichi Steel Corporation - As part of the Toyota Group, a Steel Production Division was established at Toyota Automatic Loom Works, Ltd. in 1934 with the goal of research and development of specialty steel indispensable to the domestic production of
automobiles. In 1940 the Steel Production Division became an independent company, inaugurated as “Toyota Steel”, which was later renamed “Aichi Steel”. In recent years, Aichi Steel has also focused on the development of electromagnetic products, commercializing such products as MI sensors, magnetic dental attachments and plastic magnets, and advancing the development of target markets, including the fields of dentistry and information.
