ABSTRACT A ferrous object detector and locator includes a magnetometer sensor and a position sensor controlled by a microprocessor. The device accurately locates and identifies an unknown ferrous object and determines the depth and orientation of a buried ferrous rod. Simultaneous magnetic field measurements from the magnetometer and position information in one or more orthogonal directions from the position sensor are combined and analyzed by the microprocessor using predetermined algorithms to determine the location and identity of the object. The detector is capable of detecting location and identity of objects of general shape and size.
