WüRTH ELEKTRONIK WSEN-ISDS MEMS-based sensors with a 3-axis accelerometer and integrated gyroscope provides selectable measuring ranges and data rates, improving versatility. To facilitate integration ...

The AXO301 and AXO305 MEMS accelerometers are sampling now. Also available is an AXO Arduino-based evaluation kit that provides built-in testing functions, such as output reading and recording, ...

How it works: When something triggers the sensor, the Arduino records that moment as triggerTime in Line 23, and compares it with the current time based on conditions in lines 26, 29, and 34.

We don’t have much personal experience with DOF hardware, but this Arduino library which reads and compensates for three-axis magnetometer and accelerometer data looks very impressive. It sho… ...

The accelerometer uses sensors to detect the motion and speed of your hand, while the connected Arduino board will pick up on your motions and work out the commands.

Using motion detectors and an Arduino you can trigger lights, fans, or even an pneumatically controlled cleaver-wielding clown to help add your house to the “if you dare” list.

Samples of the all sensors are available now, with mass production of the gyroscopes to commence in Q1 2016 and mass production of the accelerometers starting in mid-2016.
