To sense shock, vibration, and/or linear motion, accelerometers are beginning to appear in a broad range of new applications. Common types of accelerometers for these applications�various ...

Awide variety of accelerometers has been developed for measuring vibration, shock, and inertial motion. To reduce risk and ensure that meaningful and accurate data is collected, you must understand ...

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 ...

STMicroelectronics has introduced a new family of high-performance three-axis linear accelerometers with digital output that offer resolution scalability, smart embedded features and reduced power ...

Anyone who has performed vibration tests is familiar with accelerometers, which are positioned on the EUT to measure the acceleration relative to the shaker and, most importantly, to find resonances.

Advanced Sensors Calibration (ASC), has announced the introduction of three new families of 4-20 mA current output accelerometers for structural monitoring applications. The new release includes a low ...

COLUMBIA can offer an extensive range of Force Balance Servo Accelerometers and Inclinometers, designed specifically to provide the user with a variety of sizes, configurations and performance levels ...

A tiny 3-axis MEMS accelerometer, the LIS2DTW12 from STMicroelectronics embeds a temperature sensor that boasts typical accuracy of 0.8°C. The device’s thin 2×2×0.7-mm LGA-12 plastic package allows it ...

Last fall, I grabbed a robot arm from Robot Geeks when they were on sale at Thanksgiving. The arm uses servos to rotate the base and move the joints and gripper. These work well enough but I found one ...
