Sensors already present in your mobile phone are capable of detecting the orientation of your screen. At QuantIC we are taking this technology to the next level with Wee-g, the most stable Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) device ever developed. The device already has a sensitivity of 40 uGal/rt(Hz) and will be able to measure acceleration variances in all three directions. Wee-g is compact in size and with its optical readout is the size of a golf ball. The device will offer the most attractive cost to performance ratio in the marketplace. QuantIC would like to develop Wee-g technology demonstrator projects in collaboration with a range of industry partners to explore possible applications where the technology can deliver competitive advantage in the following areas: • Oil and gas prospecting and reservoir monitoring • Civil engineering and detection of underground structures • Environmental monitoring and volcanology • Navigation • Aerospace • Security and Defence
