[[Accelerometer]] is a sensor that measures the proper acceleration or g-force of a [[device]]. Unlike coordinate acceleration (rate of change of velocity), proper acceleration takes gravity into account.
In [[virtual reality|virtual]] and [[augmented reality]], accelerometers are often part of [[IMU]]s used for [[rotational tracking]]. They are used to track the [[rotational movements]] of pitch, yaw, and roll.
