Usage Examples
Converse of object
- use: The movement of the structure was recorded using accelerometers.
- attach: These signals are obtained from an accelerometer attached to the cardiac walls of patients who are recovering from by-pass surgery.
- mount: Your speed is monitored using a trainer mounted accelerometer ( Foot Pod ) that wirelessly transmits your speed.
- call: Children in the Sports Pro-Active program will have their activity levels monitored using a device called an accelerometer.
- wear: The Trost bands are taken from large-scale research into young people's exercise ( whilst wearing accelerometers ).
- fit: Knowing how stiffness influences the speed, field tests were conducted with seven accelerometers fitted on skis to identify the most important vibrations.
Converse of subject
- detect: These changes are detected by an accelerometer and interpreted as a command.
Adjective modifier
- 3d: The 3D accelerometer that changed the pitch has been replaced with a 1D one that is easier to control.
- micromachined: This is certainly the case with experimental micromachined diamond accelerometers analogous to those made in silicon.
- triaxial: Quiet stance was assessed using a triaxial accelerometer and balance performance monitor simultaneously.
Modifies a noun
- device: The project involves a simulation of specks with accelerometer devices attached, scattered randomly over the surface of a spinning disk.
- signal: Deflexion of the material is measured by a potentiometer or double integration of the accelerometer array signals.
- datum: The physical characteristics of the car are reverse engineered from the accelerometer data collected through the pedestrian impactor testing in EuroNCAP.
Noun used with modifier
- two-axis: The HMR3300 is a three-axis, tilt compensated compass that uses a two-axis accelerometer for enhanced performance up to a 60° tilt range.
- axis: See also the HMC1055 which includes a HMC1051, HMC1052 and a two axis accelerometer for this application.
- piezoelectric: It is a surface micromachined piezoelectric accelerometer employing a zinc oxide ( ZnO ) active piezoelectric film.
- three-axis: To measure pitch and roll information, a two-axis tilt sensor, or a two or three-axis accelerometer is commonly used.
Preposition: for
