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 ...
Accelerometers are used in vehicles for applications such as airbag deployment, electronic stability control (ESC), and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). Airbag systems incorporate ...
The just-launched Brain Sentry Impact Sensor™, a lightweight helmet-mounted impact-monitoring device, will use ST’s MEMS accelerometer to monitor head impacts that may cause concussions or other brain ...
The just-launched Brain Sentry Impact Sensor, which is mounted on sports-related helmets, integrates STMicroelectronics’ MEMS accelerometer to accurately measure acceleration in all directions ...
Dmitry Vasilenko, of Arrow Electronics, provides some design hints to accelerate the mechanical model of an accelerometer. Micro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have become common. They are used for ...
