  2. Inertial measurement unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_measurement_unit

    An inertial measurement unit works by detecting linear acceleration using one or more accelerometers and rotational rate using one or more gyroscopes. [ 3 ] Some also include a magnetometer which is commonly used as a heading reference. Some IMUs, like Adafruit's 9-DOF IMU, include additional sensors like temperature. [ 4 ]

  3. Google PageSpeed Tools - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_PageSpeed_Tools

    Google PageSpeed is a family of tools by Google, Inc. [1] designed to help optimize website performance. [2] It was introduced at a Developer Conference in 2010. [3][4] There are four main components of PageSpeed family tools: PageSpeed Module (consisting of mod PageSpeed [5] for the Apache HTTP Server and NGX PageSpeed [6] for the Nginx) [7 ...

  4. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

    Bandwidth test software is used to determine the maximum bandwidth of a network or internet connection. It is typically undertaken by attempting to download or upload the maximum amount of data in a certain period of time, or a certain amount of data in the minimum amount of time.

  5. Instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation

    Instrumentation. Instrumentation is a collective term for measuring instruments, used for indicating, measuring, and recording physical quantities. It is also a field of study about the art and science about making measurement instruments, involving the related areas of metrology, automation, and control theory.

  6. Rheometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheometer

    v. t. e. A rotational rheometer in use in a research laboratory. A rheometer is a laboratory device used to measure the way in which a viscous fluid (a liquid, suspension or slurry) flows in response to applied forces. It is used for those fluids which cannot be defined by a single value of viscosity and therefore require more parameters to be ...

  7. 2011 OPERA faster-than-light neutrino anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_OPERA_faster-than...

    End results. On July 12, 2012, the OPERA collaboration published the end results of their measurements between 2009 and 2011. The difference between the measured and expected arrival time of neutrinos (compared to the speed of light) was approximately 6.5 ± 15 ns. This is consistent with no difference at all, thus the speed of neutrinos is ...

  8. Speedtest.net - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedtest.net

    Speedtest.net. Speedtest.net, also known as Speedtest by Ookla, is a web service that provides free analysis of Internet access performance metrics, such as connection data rate and latency. It is the flagship product of Ookla, a web testing and network diagnostics company founded in 2006, and based in Seattle, Washington, United States. [5][6]

  9. Strain gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_gauge

    Measurements can be distributed along the fiber, or taken at predetermined points on the fiber. The 2010 America's Cup boats Alinghi 5 and USA-17 both employ embedded sensors of this type.
