Accelerometers turn motion into measurable signals. From tilt and vibration to g-forces, they underpin countless designs. In this “Fun with Fundamentals” entry, we demystify their operation and take a ...
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 ...
Also known as inertial sensors, accelerometers are critical elements in key applications such as automotive air-bag deployment, smartphone motion tracking, and industrial predictive maintenance. These ...
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 ...

On the smallest scales, our universe gets weird. Particles act like billiard balls or waves on water, depending how you probe them. Properties can't be measured simultaneously or tend to smear ...
