Micro-Torsion Balance

This technology is a new ultra-sensitive torsion balance device small enough to fit on a microchip, that can be used to measure forces, gravity, or acceleration with a high degree of resolution. Background: A torsion balance measures torque by monitoring the rotation of a test mass suspended by from an elastic fiber (acting as a torsion spring). To...
