Inertial sensors for smartphones navigation [PDF]
The advent of smartphones and tablets, means that we can constantly get information on our current geographical location. These devices include not only GPS/GNSS chipsets but also mass-market inertial platforms that can be used to plan activities, share locations on social networks, and also to perform positioning in indoor and outdoor scenarios.

An inertial sensor for parts inspection [PDF]
This paper describes the development of a sensor which performs parts inspection by measuring the inertial properties of the part. The sensor comprises a measuring platform supported on a column which is fixed to a rigid base. The part under inspection is attached to the platform to form a single body.
