Magnetic Analysis — Top 10 Current Applications

1. Traffic vehicle detection, counting, and classification
   One of the strongest current use cases: lane presence, counts, direction, dwell, and class estimation for cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and similar roadway activity.

2. Parking occupancy and turnover analysis
   Detecting whether spaces are occupied, measuring duration of stay, turnover rate, and parking utilization.

3. Industrial motor and rotating equipment condition monitoring
   Magnetic signatures can help track motor behavior, electrical imbalance, and machine state where electromagnetic behavior matters.

4. Current transformer and power-system health monitoring
   Magnetic sensing is actively used for electrical equipment monitoring, current behavior, and power infrastructure diagnostics.

5. Asset presence, movement, and anti-theft monitoring
   Useful for detecting tagged or magnetically significant assets moving through controlled spaces.

6. Rail detection and train movement tracking
   Rail occupancy, axle-related detection, and movement confirmation are strong magnetic use cases.

7. Perimeter and access-point intrusion detection
   Detecting movement of vehicles, gates, doors, or metallic objects near sensitive areas.

8. Subsurface ferrous object / anomaly detection
   Locating buried metallic objects, utilities, or anomalous magnetic disturbances.

9. Navigation, heading, and positioning support
   Magnetometer-based heading and localization remain widely useful in mobile and embedded systems.

10. Manufacturing QC for part presence, alignment, or pass/fail state
    Detecting whether a metal component is present, correctly oriented, or behaving as expected in a production step.
