The team from the Sensing, Interaction & Perception Lab at ETH Zürich, Switzerland have come up with TapType, an interesting text input method that relies purely on a pair of wrist-worn devices, that ...

Accelerometers turn motion into measurable signals. From tilt and vibration to g-forces, they underpin countless designs. In this “Fun with Fundamentals” entry, we demystify their operation and take a ...

Motion parameter transducers encapsulate a broad class of sensors that convert mechanical motion into electrical signals, facilitating quantitative analysis of dynamic systems. Within this category, ...

In a conference room at Analog Devices (ADI), Howard Wisniowski holds a demo board a little bigger than a commemorative stamp about a meter above the table top. An ADI motion sensor and associated ...

An IMU is a compact, high-precision device that captures how an object moves and orients itself in space. Whether steering ...
