Magnetic field detection?
Are there any miniature devices to detect magnetic fields without using another magnet?
Eg. want to detect a magnet embedded into a wall.

Good thinking Pete.
Can these Hall Effect Switches work whilst in motion and can these be bought off the shelf?
Best I found after I did the post was a Magnetometer and they are huge.
As you very well know space is impotant when designing

It works for me, they cannot be too helpful - they know that if I name them on the Parts List they can then claim that they supply the UKs Number 1 Nuclear Defence company with parts ........... not a bad talking point for their next client!!

Don't think I'll have that much pulling power but they could be claiming they supply to the worlds largest c***** manufacture and the 4th or 6th richest man in America

Connect a coil to a sensitive galvanometer and move it around in the area you want to check. You would have to calibrate it to the Earth's magnetic field first of course.

Do a search and find a company in your area - tell them that you are specifying components for a big project and think their components will be ideal, could they spare a sample.
It works for me, they cannot be too helpful - they know that if I name them on the Parts List they can then claim that they supply the UKs Number 1 Nuclear Defence company with parts ........... not a bad talking point for their next client!!
