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 ...

Researchers have developed new sensors for measuring acceleration and vibration on trains. The technology could be integrated with artificial intelligence to prevent railway accidents and catastrophic ...

Designed for measuring vibration on lightweight structures, miniature electronic devices, and a variety of small objects, the Model 27AM1 ISOTRON accelerometer is an extremely small, adhesive-mounted ...

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 ...

TDK Corp. has introduced the miniature Tronics AXO315 one-axis, closed-loop MEMS accelerometer with a 24-bit digital SPI interface in a SMD package. The company claims the force-rebalance MEMS ...

The ability to measure, monitor, and analyze vibration is essential to many industries and areas of research & development. Unfortunately, the proper methods for creating an accurate and repeatable ...

MOTION CONTROL: PCB Piezotronics Inc. announced Model 352B70, the newest sensor in the family of accelerometers designed for extreme testing found only in shaker labs. PCB has worked closely with ...

TDK Tronics adds two digital MEMS accelerometers to its AXO300 series providing high linearity and stability, even in high vibration environments. The AXO301 is a low ...

We take it for granted now, but the fact that you can flip your phone from portrait to landscape mode depends on accelerometers. As everyone knows, though, the damn things often get it wrong, leaving ...
