Abstract :
A simple measuring method of the electromagnetic field distribution has been desired. Recently, the authors have developed the method of measuring spatial distribution in real time by tracking the measuring location by using the built in infrared camera of a home video game controller. In this study, we present the method for measuring a electromagnetic field distribution by using two infrared cameras, and introduce visualizing method of 3D distribution. As a result, it is confirmed that a spatial electromagnetic field distribution can be visualized in real time by classifying depth coordinates and plotting measured value on the each plane.
