Capacitive sensors
Three different types of capacitive sensors:
Triaxial
Pseudo Triaxia
Coaxial
Triaxial and pseudo triaxial capacitive sensors are used most of the time, while coaxial capacitive sensors are seldom seen.
Comparison of three different technologies
| Triaxial | Pesudo Axial | Coaxial | |
| Static measurement | Excellent | Good at short time | Bad |
| Dynamic measurement | Excellent | Excellent | Mean |
| Vibration rejection (cable) | Excellent | Excellent | Mean |
| Rejection of temperature | High | HIgh | Mean |
| Cable length effect | Mean | Mean | High |
