well i was wondering if anyone here knows about wireless transmission, not cells phones or things like that.. but transmission of data. mainly i want to transmitt data wirelessly outside a magnetic cube. yeah crazy i know.. but i have a magnetic (electromagnetic) cube and i want to have a wireless transmitter sending data from inside the cube to a pc placed outside. if anyone knows any information or can direct me to some site/help let me know
thanks

Magnetic cube? What do you mean? And if you don't mind me asking... why?

exactly what is in this magnetic cube, and why is it magnetic?

well in short, it is a 3ftx3ftx3ft cube made up of loops of wires (each side of the cube is a loop of wires alot of wires) so basically it is an electromagnetic cube. and i have a circular coil placed inside the cube, thus as the coil moves around it induces a current and a voltage across the ends of the coil. now i want to capture that voltae readin and transmitt it outside the cube to a pc. i already do this using a magnet wire attached to the coil and to my pc. but i want to do it wirelessly to reduce the amount of wire/metal involved. now i know there will me metals and loops in the wireless transmitter, but i am guessing it would be less than what i have now, and it would be smaller in size.
reasons for doing all this is for research (monitoring head and eye movements)
my main question is can i transmitt wirelessly even if i have a magnetic feild around my unit, and what kind of noise and disturbances would i see.
thanks for your replies and interest
