The 17 pages that link to Accelerometer, each with the reason it gives.

• AccelerationRelated: It detects acceleration in phones, vehicles, and scientific instruments.

• Inertial navigation systemBroader topic: Its measurements provide the specific force that the system integrates to estimate motion.

• Physical activityRelated: Accelerometers capture movement patterns that self-reports may miss.

• GyroscopeCompared with: It measures linear acceleration, whereas a gyroscope measures angular motion.

• SeismometerCompared with: Unlike many traditional seismometers, accelerometers are designed to measure strong ground acceleration.

• SensorBroader topic: It detects motion in devices ranging from phones to aircraft.

• InertiaRelated: Its internal mass shifts under acceleration because of inertia.

• Mobile gameRelated: Games can use device tilting to steer, aim, or control motion.

• Inertial measurement unitRelated: Its readings provide the IMU's linear-acceleration measurements.

• Sports biomechanicsRelated: Wearable accelerometers record movement and impacts in field settings.

• Tablet computerRelated: Orientation sensing lets many tablets rotate their interface with the device.

• MEMSBroader topic: Micromachined accelerometers detect motion in phones, vehicles, and industrial equipment.

• SmartwatchRelated: It detects movement used for activity estimates, gesture controls, and step counts.

• WiiNarrower topic: Accelerometers let the Wii Remote register swings, tilts, and other movements.

• Wii SportsNarrower topic: The Wii Remote’s accelerometer lets the game detect swings and other gestures.

• FurbyRelated: Movement and tilting provide Furby with cues for its animated behavior.

• TiltmeterRelated: Gravity-sensitive accelerometers can estimate tilt without a mechanical pendulum.
