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 at the National Institute of Technology (NIST) have developed a new type of accelerometer based on lasers and optomechanical principles rather than the traditional mechanical strain gauges ...
In a conference room at Analog Devices (ADI), Howard Wisniowski holds a demo board a little bigger than a commemorative stamp about a meter above the table top. An ADI motion sensor and associated ...
