This letter presents a new single-axis low-cost printed-circuit-board (PCB)-based accelerometer. Motivated by the need to develop low-cost human-sensing accelerometer, a capacitive PCB-based microelectromechanical-system (MEMS) accelerometer is developed, and the experimental results of the prototype have demonstrated that the objective is feasible. The PCB-based MEMS accelerometer is fabricated with...
This article presents a new low-cost PCB-based accelerometer. A metal film is adhered to PCB board, which forms the two electrodes of the sensing capacitor of the accelerometer. The sensor signal is proportional to the change of capacitance, and it is obtained by a read-out circuit. This signal is compared with the output signal of a commercially available accelerometer, ADXL330, by Analog Devices...
Accelerometers developed originally for uses in military, navigation and automotive applications but are finding applications in pointing devices and game pads. The proliferation of accelerometers in consumer products depends on the availability of low cost accelerometers. In this investigation, consumer-based non-silicon accelerometers are designed and fabricated for sensing human motions and gestures...
