ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 9 -- United States Patent no. 12,287,207, issued on April 29, was assigned to Kutztown University of Pennsylvania of the State System of Pennsylvania (Kutztown, Pa.).

"Rotation sensing and magnetometry using localization on a ring shaped lattice" was invented by Kunal Das (Reading, Pa.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Embodiments relate to a sensor system configured to detect physical rotation, entire or relative, of one or more objects and/or their environment and/or proximity of a magnetic field, by measuring the degree of localization of a medium trapped in a ring-shaped artificial lattice. The lattice structure can be configured to comprise of lattice sites distributed...
