An apparatus 100 to estimate co-efficient of friction between a first sample member 103 and a second sample member 105 includes a housing 101, a measuring tip 104 extending from the housing 101. Further, the apparatus includes a multi-axis load sensor 107 disposed inside the housing 101 to measure components of load acting on the measuring tip 104. Further, the apparatus includes a motion and orientation measurement sensor 109 connected to the measuring tip 104 to measure components of acceleration and orientation of the measuring tip 104 with respect to a reference frame. Furthermore, the apparatus includes an output unit 111 to acquire, and process values from the multi-axis load sensor 107 and the motion and orientation measurement sensor 109 to estimate the co-efficient of friction. |
