Scrolling
An accelerometer acts as a motion or tilt sensor.A user’s motion can be detected and used to orient the display, as when using a map, and to conveniently search through data such as WebPages or lengthy text. It also eliminates small or difficult buttons that are often hard to use.

Freefall detection
Hard-disk-drives are included in many portable devices such as Laptops, PocketPCs, PDAs, MP3 Players and portable media centers. If these devices should be dropped, the HDD head can slide over the drive erasing the data. Using a MEMS sensor, the freefall can be measured and act as a safety feature that can signal the hard disk head to park away and protect all data. This is done using an acceleration sensor that can detect movements along all three dimensions
(X, Y and Z axis).
