A new advance in shaft vibration monitoring is expected to be of significant value to power plants relying on a wide range of generating equipment.

With an ESP32 and a simple sensor, I can slap my table to turn on my PC for less than $5.

Cambridge start-up 8power has signed a contract with Innovate UK to support the development of its vibration energy harvesting (VEH) technology, an advance with a range of money-saving sensor ...

With his project, a 3-axis Open Source FFT Spectrum Analyzer he is not only entering the Hackaday Prize 2016 but also the highly contested field of acoustic defect recognition.

Piezo Sensor & Accelerometer Simple collision sensors can also be made using a piezo electric sensor or accelerometer. A piezoelectric vibration sensor (piezo vibration sensor) captures changes in ...

Understanding the role vibration sensors play in proactive maintenance applications is critical to avoiding unplanned downtime. A vibration sensor can reveal if a motor is misaligned to a pump or ...

For the incoming mail detection, he uses a simple vibration sensor, glued to the flap lid – we imagine that, for flap-less mailboxes, an optical sensor or a different kind of mechanical sensor ...

Inspired by the spiderweb’s vibrational sensitivity despite noise, researchers created an analogous high-performance silicon-nitride MEMS version.

The idea behind this compact and economical Vibration Sensor Alarm is very simple. It uses a cheap and cheerful vibration sensor to drive a piezo-sounder.
