Abstract
A microtechnique device includes an actuator, designed to move movable equipment with a permanent magnet with respect to a support. The actuator is designed to move the movable equipment in two degrees of freedom from a position of rest, and the permanent magnet is chosen to have a magnetic field distribution that presents a main plane of symmetry and a main direction of magnetization passing through a center. The device includes a first magnetic sensor and a second magnetic sensor, these two being designed to detect a movement of the magnet. The sensors are positioned with respect to the position of rest of the magnet in a specific manner in the main plane of symmetry of the magnetic field and near to extrema. The first and second sensors are then sensitive to the movements of the movable equipment perpendicular to their respective working axes.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
