Acceleration Sensors
Utilizing patented MEMS production technology, the Panasonic Acceleration Sensors are available with a built in ASIC chip, or as an elemental type, and can be used to detect tilt and vibration in addition to rapid acceleration.

1-Axis GS1 features high precision and high sensitivity with ±5% overall accuracy and 1 V/g detection sensitivity. The GS1 is made with a capacitive MEMS sensor chip in a compact package - 6.2(L) x 8.5(H) x 1.6(H) mm (typ.). The G-Sensor is used for inclination detection, vibration detection and vibration monitoring, making it ideal for car navigation systems and LCD projectors (trapezoidal compensation).

3-Axis GS3 features ultra-compact size - 4.6(L) x 4.6(W) x 1.3(H) mm (typ.), and excellent anti-shock properties (5,000 g). The GS3 is made with a Piezo MEMS sensor chip and has three piezo bridges which enables it to detect X, Y, and Z-axis acceleration separately. The GS3 is used in compensation for GPS.systems and can be paired with gyroscopic compass elements such as those offered by Asahi.
