ABSTRACT:
An electrostatic field measurement sensor that determines the position and location of items under study, with respect to the location of the measurement apparatus. This position and location determination of items under study is performed by the sensor actively inducing, and then measuring the corresponding electric field response, both magnitude and direction, of all items under study that are within the field of view of the sensor. The field of view of the sensor is within a three dimensional space surrounding the sensor. The distance vector of the detection range of the sensor is directly correlated with the magnitude of the electric field surrounding the sensor.
