Magnetic motion sensor
First Claim
1. A magnetic motion sensor, comprising a mobile magnet that generates an essentially homogeneous magnetic field with a magnetic-field direction, and a coupling element which is stationary within the magnetic field, wherein a motion-dependent physical quantity is induced in the coupling element when the magnet moves perpendicular to the magnetic-field direction.
