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 ...

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) accelerometers and vibration sensors represent a rapidly evolving field with significant implications for structural health monitoring, seismic detection, and industrial ...

In an ongoing quest to bring you news about the guts of your next gadgets, here's some riveting stuff about accelerometers. Remember when they first burst ...

Apple's best earbuds are expected to feature a heart rate sensor, which first made its way to the Powerbeats Pro 2, ...

If auto-rotate on your Samsung device has suddenly stopped, the issue can be due to a number of reasons such as an app problem, a software glitch, a firmware error, or a bad sensor. Although not ...

Kionix’s KX23H integrated sensor hub packs a low-power three-axis accelerometer and a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 microcontroller (MCU) into a 3- by 3- by 0.9-mm package.

The accelerometer and gravity sensor work hand-in-hand on your Android phone. The former tracks its motion and the effects of gravity, while the latter measures the direction and intensity of gravity.
