1. A sensor, comprising:

  • a base configured to be secured to a host structure;

    a resonator centered over the base, the resonator being configured to harvest energy from vibratory motion of a host structure;

    an accelerometer rigidly coupled with the base and centered over said base;

    a circuit arrangement electrically coupled with the accelerometer, the circuit arrangement being configured to receive signals from the accelerometer; and

    an electromechanical transducer coupled with the resonator and electrically coupled with the circuit arrangement, the electromechanical transducer being configured to convert vibratory energy of the resonator to electrical energy.
