    Difference between Gyroscope and Accelerometer

    The accelerometer is one of the basic measurement elements of inertial navigation and guidance systems. In other words, the accelerometer is an oscillating system installed inside the motion carrier to measure the motion acceleration of the carrier. The gyroscope is called an angular velocity sensor, which is different from an accelerometer. The physical quantity it measures is deflection and tilt rotational angle speed. Many of us often hear the term accelerometer sensor and gyroscope sensor, but what is the difference between them?With these questions, ATO will introduce them to you.

    How to Calibrate Accelerometer Sensor?

    As we all know, the application of accelerometers in the field of automotive electronics becomes increasingly extensive. In these applications, it is usually necessary to measure the acceleration data based on the vehicle coordinate system, which requires the direction of each sensing axis of the acceleration sensor to be consistent with the vehicle coordinate system.

    How to Select Accelerometer Sensor?

    Accelerometer sensors are ICs that measure acceleration, which is the change in speed (velocity) per unit time. Measuring acceleration makes it possible to obtain information such as object inclination and vibration. It is usually composed of mass blocks, dampers, elastic elements, sensitive elements and adaptive circuits. During the acceleration process of the sensor, the acceleration value is obtained by using Newton's second law by measuring the inertial force on the mass block.
