Engineers now design systems and products that include MEMS sensors, particularly MEMS gyroscopes, as essential components. These applications range from portable and wearable devices to industrial ...

Your Apple device is full of sensors. The main five consist of a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, an accelerometer, a magnetometer and a gyroscopic sensor. Also included in these devices are ...

Makers, and developers that are creating robotic projects using the Arduino platform maybe interested in a new Arduino compatible gyroscope sensor created by Martin Cote based in Canada. The 3 axis ...

3D functionality is the hallmark feature of Nintendo's latest handheld, the 3DS, but that feature was apparently a late arrival to the device's development game plan. Speaking with Japanese gaming ...

Researchers have taken an important new step in advancing the performance of resonator fiber optic gyroscopes, a type of fiber optic sensor that senses rotation using only light. Because gyroscopes ...

Every high-end smartphone and tablet today contain three sensing devices that enable true motion gaming and augmented reality experiences. Two of these devices, the accelerometer and magnetometer, can ...

Did you know that the Samsung Galaxy S5 (#Samsung #GalaxyS5) has as many as ten sensors? They’re one of the reasons why the device seems “smarter” than others. More often than not, these sensors are ...
