Short summary
This paper presents the automated testing of accelerometer transverse sensitivity with a flexure-based compliant stage. An experimental platform is set up, and the circular tracking error is first obtained to verify the feasibility of the stage. The transverse sensitivity of the accelerometer under test is below 3 %. The difference of the transverse sensitivity under various frequencies is 0.4 %, while the difference of measured direction angle is 2.49, which validates the accuracy of the method.
