STMicroelectronics claims first IMU with dual MEMS accelerometer and embedded AI with impact detection up to 320 g.

Background The WHO recommends ≥150 min/week of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) for older adults, while the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare suggests ≥6000 steps/day.

In this study, one measurement point was adopted as nonofficial to discard commercial accelerometers. This configuration can present the influence of different vibration modes on the acceleration ...

A handful of other units of measurement were also included to form the International System of Units, the basis of the metric system. But the metre's inception predates the treaty that bears its ...

That said, how you measure body composition matters, and no one universal body composition is ideal for everyone. It’s best to check in with doctors and other healthcare experts—like the ones ...

The 2025 NBA draft combine tipped off on Monday as prospects hit the court for strength and agility testing, anthropometric measurements and more in Chicago, Illinois. The NBA announced on May 2 that ...

Abstract: This article introduces a new accelerometer based on the measurement principle of atomic force microscopy (AFM). Through the structural design of micro-cantilever arrays with different ...

Abstract: This paper discusses the design, calibration, simulation, and experimental validation of a kinematically redundant inertial measurement unit that is based solely on accelerometers. The ...

Just over a year ago we published an Application Note covering the type ADXL05 accelerometer chip from Analog Devices. Now it’s time to actually use this interesting device in a project for home ...

The first commercial use of the accelerometer occurred in the 1920s, where they were used in bridges (to record vibrations) and aircraft (to measure accelerations).28 It weighed about a pound and cost ...
