NextMAG Magnetometer

NextMAG offers a portable, low-maintenance solution that delivers accuracy at a fraction of the cost. Weighing just a few hundred grams and roughly the size of a small shoebox, it provides three-dimensional magnetic field measurements while running on a power source as simple as a portable phone charger. 

NextMAG includes everything you need to start collecting and interpreting high-quality magnetic field data:

• Three-axis magneto-inductive magnetic field sensor – delivers accurate, science-grade magnetic field strength and direction data

• Built-in GPS – provides precise time and location stamping for each data point

• Gyroscope and accelerometer – tracks device orientation and motion for accurate data interpretation 

• Thermistor – calibrates temperature-induced data variations with a high-precision temperature sensor

• Single-board computer – manages all core data processing, device control, and communication

• Collaborative online database platform – enables users to view, share, and explore data in a global database of magnetic field measurements

• Educator-developed instructional materials – supports formal and informal learners to engage with NextMAG through materials designed by teachers
