Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus, method, and associated systems are provided. A plurality of anisotropic magnetoresistive sensors are arranged in an array, each anisotropic magnetoresistive sensor comprising a magnetic field transducer and a sensor signal conditioning circuit. A central processor in electrical communication with each anisotropic magnetoresistive sensor is provided. The central processor is configured to compare processed signals received from at least two of the plurality of anisotropic magnetoresistive sensors to determine a position of the magnet.
