The permanent magnet element design uses a cylindrical neodymium–iron–boron magnet sealed in titanium. The sensor array is connected to the IST-10 via three Y-branch leads and connectors. The three sensors, two resistors, and a voltage regulator are assembled into a hybrid circuit and sealed in a titanium capsule.

The sensor design used three Hall-effect sensors arranged in an equilateral triangle to sense the field produced by the magnet. The transducer consists of two elements, a Hall-effect sensor array and a magnet, each packaged in titanium. Kilgore, in Implantable Neuroprostheses for Restoring Function, 2015 Implanted joint angle transducerĪn IJAT was developed that transduces joint angle in two degrees of freedom.
