Using MEMS accelerometers in aerospace and defence electronics/ Dogan Ibrahim
Material type: TextPublication details: 2012Subject(s): In: Electronics World August 2012 Vol.118 Issue 1916, pp.16-21 (75)Summary: The author describes the operating principles and application areas of MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical-systems) accelerometers in the aerospace and defence fields where MEMS sensors are used to gather information on temperature, force, pressure, acceleration, speed, position and angle which is then used to create intelligent miniature systems. In its implication to defence, it was said that "MEMS will create new military capabilities, make high-end functionality affordable to low-end military systems and extend the operational and lifetimes of existing weapons platforms".Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
