This guidance system reads gyroscopes and accelerometers and sends appropriate commands to attitude control thrusters. |
A monitoring system, including tension sensors, accelerometers, and deformation gauges, will be put in place for purposes of bridge maintenance. |
If there's an accident, accelerometers can alert the network to the crash, before it turns into a multiple vehicle pile-up. |
In addition, NASA's second redesigned tank has been outfitted with temperature sensors and accelerometers, used to measure vibration. |
In this case, the accelerometers could damp or increase the vibrations through their contact with the vehicle. |
One unit malfunctioned due to failure of one of the three internal accelerometers during a measurement period at home, and the subject was retested with another device. |
