Abstract
We report on an angular accelerometer based on
the semicircular channels of the vestibular system. The
accelerometer consists of a water-filled circular tube,
wherein the fluid flow velocity is measured thermally as
a representation for the external angular acceleration.
Measurements show a linear response for angular
acceleration amplitudes up to 2*10^5 degrees s^−2.
