ACCELEROMETER - What it is and how it works

What is an accelerometer? Which of the three types, MEMS, piezoresistive or piezoelectric accelerometer is better for your application/project? All about those g-sensors in this video and in TME: https://www.tme.eu/pl/en/katalog/?search=acce… An accelerometer is a type of sensor that measures the acceleration and vibration of a body. It is implemented in many devices such as car dash cams, laptops and, cellphones. Even sports clubs use a g-sensor to collect more data and improve their game. 0:00 - Don't Snooze! 0:23 - Definition and applications 0:44 - How does an accelerometer work? 1:52 - MEMS, capacitive accelerometers 2:48 - Piezoresistive Accelerometers 3:21 - Piezoelectric Accelerometers 3:52 - What to pay attention to? 🎬 Thank you for watching! ✦✦✦ See where else you can find us! ✦✦✦ ✔ Subscribe to our YouTube channel ➡ http://www.youtube.com/c/TMElectroniComponent… ✔ Visit our website ➡ https://www.tme.eu ✔ Like us
