The magnetic switch or Reed Switch can be used as a proximity sensor or float switch when combined with a permanent magnet.  The magnet is used to open and close the switch.  The results will vary depending on the magnetic strength, size, position and direction of the magnets movementCar sensors such as: movement sensor, speed sensor, parking sensor, position sensor, window sensors, etc.

  • Cruise control
  • Door switch courtesy light
  • Global positioning system (GPS)
