Many smart phones contain magnetic field sensors. There are compass applications which show direction.

Researchers at Deutsche Telekom have used magnetometers embedded in mobile devices to permit touch less 3-D interaction. Their interaction framework, called Magi Tact, tracks changes to the magnetic field around a cell phone to identify different gestures made by a hand holding or wearing a magnet.
