Previously, Murakami and Kitsunai applied the idea of equipping the hydraulic cylinder with a stroke sensor based on a magnetoresistor sensor to detect positions [6].
Optimization of Magnetic-Grating-Like Stroke-Sensing Cylinder Based on Response Quality Evaluation Algorithm
Smilie (8) used two magnetoresistors (devices whose electrical resistance depends on the local magnetic field), one at either end of the magnet in a jamjar magnetometer, to derive a voltage which depends on the magnet's position and can be displayed on a volt meter or recorded by a computer.

He then examines galvanomagnetic effects and the basic properties of Hall plates and magnetoresistors, Hall magnetic sensors, and Hall devices as means for characterizing semiconductors.

In our previous paper [16] we introduced the methods how to improve the accuracy of the yokeless current transducer (Figure 1) with a circular array of anisotropic magnetoresistors (AMR).
