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 ...

The 787F side-exit, low profile accelerometer with an integral cable includes a side-exit general purpose sensor with a permanent Viton boot and Teflon jacketed cable to provide protection in harsh ...

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 ...

ADI’s ADXL375 200-g digital MEMS accelerometer delivers more than twice the bandwidth at less than half the power consumption of competing sensors used to measure high-g events. NORWOOD, ...

Accelerometers are used in vehicles for applications such as airbag deployment, electronic stability control (ESC), and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). Airbag systems incorporate ...

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 ...
