Chris Hansford, managing director of Hansford Sensors, discusses the need for accurate data capture as part of a predictive maintenance plan in modern manufacturing and explains the different measurements that can be taken by vibration sensors to carry out condition monitoring in different applications

This rotation of the acceleration corrupts the longitudinal acceleration measurement along the stance by the time-varying projection of gravity (this term is smaller than 0.5 m/[s.sup.2] for a walking pedestrian but could be larger if he is running).
