MEMS SENSOR
Accelerometers
An accelerometer measures acceleration or motion.
A tiny suspended mass can move when acceleration occurs. That displacement can then be converted into an electrical signal.
MEMS SENSOR
Gyroscopes
MEMS gyroscopes detect rotation or angular motion.
They are often combined with accelerometers to help determine motion and orientation.
