Digital Compass Sensor is actually a magnetometer that can measure the Earth’s magnetic field. With the use of ‘Hall Effect’ and by calculating the ultralow frequency signals coming from the North or South direction, this sensor can calculate the orientation and direction.
A compass is a device that shows the cardinal directions used for navigation and geographic orientation. It commonly consists of a magnetized needle or other element, such as a compass card or compass rose, which can pivot to align itself with magnetic north.
