Coded Magnets Beneath Magnetic Viewing Film

Programmable Magnets

In 2008, renown scientist Larry Fullerton invented correlated magnetic structures, or “programmable magnets” with attributes such as strong-yet-safe magnetic fields, precise rotational and translational alignment, rapid attachment and detachment, contactless attachment, and repel and snap behaviors.

The Shortest
Path Effect

The coding of the multiple poles of correlated magnetic structures determines near and far field densities.

Recent CMR Innovations

Multi-Level Transition Distance Modulation

The distance at which Coded Magnets^TM having multi-level magnetic fields will transition between an attractive and repel force can be precisely controlled using an external magnetic field source.

Programmable Repeatable Hysteresis

Coded Magnets^TM having multi-level magnetic fields and a spacer can be used to produce  programmable repeatable hysteresis behavior enabling them to take the place of more complex mechanical devices that wear out, must be replaced, require calibration, etc.

Multi-Level Magnetic Fields

Coded Magnets^TM have been developed that have a repel force in the near field and an attractive force in the far field, or vice versa.

Featured Applications

Prosthetics can have strong attachment, quick detachment, and easy-to-clean interfaces.

Battery compartments for toys, remotes, cameras, etc. can be easy-to-use without small screws or weak clips.

Momentary Switches can have permanent hysteresis behavior.

Magnetic fuses allow objects to release and then reattach to better survive an impact.
