FLUX RESONATOR

Hi all,

Interesting link to Flux Resonator lens that lets you see magnetic lines of flux in real time.
Good site, money back guarantee.  Expensive for me, but interesting useful tool for those who work with magnets.

Does it work by having some stuff inside a liquid in the device or something?

How does it compare to the way cheaper 'magnetic viewing film' ?

It reveals flux in 3-D instead of 2-D.  Also, I think in color instead of black and white?

How can it do this, if the 'flux resonator' itself is a disc shaped object and thus only is a 2D cross section through the 3D field

Don't get me wrong, it looks really nice, but I doubt that it gives more information than the viewing film. If it really produces a hologramm (hence the colors), then it gives you a spatial fourier transformation of the field that is even harder to interpret than the green shades of the film.

However, a nice but very expensive toy.
