Abstract:
A measurement device is disclosed that includes a first component having an outer surface having one or more flexible articular surfaces, and an inner surface having a first area having protrusions defining a polygon with a plurality of vertices. A load plate can be in contact with the first area. A printed circuit board can have a central section and a first lateral section. The first lateral section can have a sensor array having a plurality of sensors. Each sensor can be positioned in alignment with a vertex of the polygon and having a load pad in contact with a lower surface of the rigid load plate. A reference sensor can be spaced from the lower surface of the load plate.

Abstract:
A portable electronic uses a magnetometer to determine an alignment with an inductive charging unit magnetic charging field. The alignment increases a portion of the magnetic charging field generated by the inductive charging unit and received by the portable device to better power the device and reduce battery recharge times. The portable device displays motion icons to facilitate a manual alignment. The magnetometer may also be used for magnetic earthly field applications such as a compass, navigation and augmented reality.
