Measuring tilt, shock, and acceleration, the ultralow-power, high-resolution ADXL346 iMEMS accelerometer operates at a 1.8V primary supply voltage. The digital three-axis smart-motion sensor provides ...

Engineers developing heavy equipment such as tractors, cranes, wood chippers, and construction equipment need to include incline sensors and indicators—both to ensure that workers do not operate the ...

MUNICH, Germany — Bosch Automotive Electronics claims that its SMI540 is the world's first micromechanical inertial measurement unit for vehicle dynamics control in low-cost SOIC16w housing. The unit ...

An inclination or tilt sensor provides angular-tilt information relative to gravitational force. This information can then be used to change the characteristics of the device. For example, tilt ...

What are static and dynamic inclinometers? Which one should you choose for your project? Not sure you need one? We’ve included a range of applications where an inclinometer adds value. Precision and ...

This article discusses how to improve tilt measurement accuracy using an accelerometer like a combo part. Electric park brakes (EPBs) are used on passenger vehicles to hold the vehicle stationary on ...

In storms or other turbulence, pilots need to know how the plane is orientated and the angle at which the plane is tilted toward Earth’s surface. If the plane’s nose is tilted downward at a 45-degree ...
