I thought you might enjoy the single-winding transformer and its
interesting field lines.
I think I have seen billboards for Eddie Currents and His Rythm
Machine playing at an Indian Casino lounge.
And why were you playing at an Indian Casino Lounge?

Remember bingo cards? The mags and the cards kept us up to date.
Given the importance of the electronics industry, the publications
are now disgraceful. They might hire some retired-actual-EEs to
check their stuff before they publish.
The microwave and optics and aerospace mags are still good.
I am relieved to learn that inductive sensors don't measure
inductance.

I am assuming you noticed that half of the lines of force are drawn

They cancel to zero field at the center of the coil.
It looks like two turns on the primary, and I wish they had
shown the
secondaries.
It's a transformer. It doesn't have secondaries!
On the electric vehicle, how well is a compass going to work?
Ask
just to say I once had a dash mounted compass, I had to cross a
bridge to and from work, When I drove at 40mph across the bridge,
the compass would make a full 90* swivel before coming back to
proper orientation.
If I went faster it didn't quite make the 90*.

That is where the readout is. Most likely it is coming from the
GPS in the car and getting piped to the mirror via BT or wires along
with the power. There is a chance that they put a compass cicuit in
the mirror, but it makes more sense to use the GPS as conflicting
outputs might get noted.

Does GPS give compass direction? How does that work?
I don't see how unless you have more than one antenna and calculate from that
but a steel bridge might mess up any magnetic compass. There is a
drive-in-circles cal procedure that I haven't tried.
Your audi have a map display? If so, I would bet the mirror is
just reading out what that gathers.
Yes, it has GPS and map. But how does it know direction?
probably with one of the numerous 3 axis magnetic sensor ICs
