Abstract—(MEMS) Microelectromechanical systemsin consumer electronics are growing faster each year, with increasing demands from the mobile market, which is dominating the growth for this emerging ...

How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...

One of the most difficult aspects of selecting an accelerometer for a particular application is interpreting the accelerometer’s specifications. Often you understand your test requirements well but ...

Dua Rashid has been working as a consumer tech journalist since 2020. She's worked for a bunch of tech publications, including Gizmodo, IGN, PCMag, BuySide from WSJ, Digital Trends, and TechRadar, ...

To provide data that is more accurate with a faster response time than ever before, the Xtrinsic FXOS8700CQ 6-axis sensor combines a MEMS accelerometer and magnetometer with high resolution motion ...

HP Labs just announced the development of a new accelerometer sensor that is 1,000 more sensitive then the current mass-produced technology. HP Labs is also using the sensors as part of their CeNSE ...

Industries and R&D sites depend on sensors to measure, monitor and analyze vibrations. Unfortunately, the best ways to get accurate and repeatable vibration data are not clear to many engineers; they ...
