Problems related to accuracy of tilt measurements realized during experimental studies of miniature tilt sensors (including MEMS devices) are minutely discussed. The measurements are performed by means of a custom computer controlled test rig, over the full range of pitch and roll. Accuracy of the test rig is determined in terms of uncertainty of the measurements involved. Ways of improving performance of the test rig are briefly introduced. Exemplary results of experimental works are presented. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
A problem of measuring tilt around a single axis is discussed in detail with regard to the resultant accuracy. Ways of improving the accuracy, based on application of various mathematical equations, are proposed. Presented results of related experimental studies, performed on a tilt sensor made of a standard MEMS accelerometer, have proven that it is possible to obtain accuracy of such measurements of ca. 0.2 degrees arc. Additionally, a problem of measuring tilt of an object, which rotates within a non-vertical plane, is addressed. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
