Accelerometers are devices that measure static or dynamic acceleration. There are many applications which require the need of this device. One important application of an accelerometer is in an ...

In a new study, physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have used a cloud of atoms chilled down to incredibly cold temperatures to simultaneously measure acceleration in three dimensions—a ...

Today, most vehicles track acceleration using GPS and traditional, or "classical," electronic devices known as accelerometers. The team's quantum device has a long way to go before it can compete with ...
