Three-axis accelerometers supplied for the consumer market are typically calibrated by the sensor manufacturer using a six-element linear model comprising a gain and offset in each of the three axes.

Quantifying the vibration of industrial machinery and using that information for condition monitoring (CM) has long been an ambitious goal, but also one with significant technical and implementation ...

As 3-D-motion-sensing technologytrends toward must-have status forconsumer devices, MEMS (microelectromechanical-system)-based accelerometers,gyroscopes, and compasseshave become more dominant ...

HDK-America has announced an incredibly small, piezo-resistive three-axis acceleration sensor. HDK-America has released a small, piezo-resistive three-axis acceleration sensor, the HAAM-325B, ...

ADI’s ADXL375 200-g digital MEMS accelerometer delivers more than twice the bandwidth at less than half the power consumption of competing sensors used to measure high-g events. NORWOOD, ...

Apple has opted to equip the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus with two separate accelerometers, as discovered in Chipworks' comprehensive iPhone 6 and 6 Plus teardown. There's a three-axis Bosch BMA280 ...

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 ...
