1. A multidirectional inertial device having a plurality of preferential detection axes, comprising:

  • inertial sensor means, which are sensitive to accelerations parallel to said preferential detection axes;

    transduction means, coupled to said inertial sensor means and supplying a plurality of acceleration signals, each of which is correlated to an acceleration parallel to a respective one of said preferential detection axes;

    first comparison means, connected to said transduction means and supplying a pre-determined logic value when at least one of said acceleration signals is greater than a respective upper threshold; and

    second comparison means, connected to said transduction means and to said first comparison means for supplying said pre-determined logic value when each of said acceleration signals is greater than a respective lower threshold, which is smaller than the respective upper threshold.
