Monitoring of earthquakes using MEMS sensors.
- Authors
D'ALESSANDRO, ANTONINO
- Abstract
The article focuses on the use of micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) sensors for monitoring an earthquake. Topics discussed include the automotive airbag system invented by MEMS accelerometers used in laptops, mobile phones, and games controllers, the use of MEMS in fields of science including the physical, engineering, and medical sciences, and installation of MEMS accelerometers in urban areas to develop an urban seismic network.
