Metal detectors use one of three technologies. Either very low frequency, pulse induction, and Beat-free oscillation.

Metal detectors work by creating an electromagnetic feild. This is done by running current through a coil at the head of the metal detector (the part you point at the ground). When there is metal, the changes in the magnetic feild are picked up by a second receiver coil.
