Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are at the heart of modern navigation systems, offering critical information about position, orientation and movement through the integration of accelerometers and ...

ISA recently published the third edition of Calibration Handbook of Measuring Instruments by Alessandro Brunelli. In this Q&A feature, Brunelli highlights the focus, importance, and differentiating ...

Metrology is the science of precise measurement. It ensures accuracy and consistency across scientific, industrial, and engineering fields. Calibration is the process of aligning measurement ...

Why is calibration important? How calibration techniques have changed over time. A timeline showing the evolution of calibration from the beginning would have to start hundreds of years ago (Fig. 1).

Improvements to the SI are helping to evolve the science of accuracy and measurement. Democratization of the SI creates a traceability calibration chain accessible to anyone, anywhere. Digitization of ...
