You can use silicon compass chips.
Take a look in those kmz51 and 52 from Philips.

| This product looks more promising. BTW I was thinking about rotating a coil hooked up to a amplifyer (also rotating) ,then to a Light Emiting Diode (also rotating) when the coil crosses the magn. field lines the LED would light up. I do not know electronics & my elec. guy just quit,so it will be some time before that project is done.
