Accelerometers are appearing in a wide range of devices, mostly due to the success of the Apple iPhone, which was one of the first devices to use an accelerometer. These sensors have become integral ...
Silicon Designs, Inc. announced the North American market introduction of its new Model 1525 Series, a low-cost, integral inertial accelerometer family, now available for immediate customer shipment.
A MEMS accelerometer is a sensor that can be used to measure vibration, shock or change in velocity. By deploying many of these detectors as part of a complete sensor network, HP will enable real-time ...

The mid-20 th century revealed a truly disruptive shift in technologies for long-distance positioning and navigation. The compass, sextant, and clock were largely superseded by electronic system, ...
In this article we describe how MEMS inertial sensors, e.g., gyroscopes and accelerometers, can help someone or something to overcome spatial disorientation. We explain how external forces and ...
