    Hello Naue,

    We have seen interest in sports especially in concussion detection in football and hockey.  Furthermore, also for high value asset tracking.

    For more information please go to www.st.com/mems

    Thank you,

    Thiago

    Hi @Nathalie MAGNIEZ ,

    as the other users said, you should use high g accelerometer whenever the normal 16g Full Scale is not enough to reach the useful data, like for example in sports monitoring

    if you put a sensor in a football, you will see accelerations higher than 16g, and you will need a high g to detect certain situations
