This project details a magnetic field detection system that can be mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The system is comprised of analog circuitry to detect and process the magnetic signals, digital circuitry to sample and store the data outputted from the analog front end, and finally a UAV to carry and mobilize the electronic parts. The system should be able to sense magnetic fields from power transmission lines, enabling the determination of whether or not current is running through the power line.
