1. Apparatus for recording changes associated with acceleration of a structure, the apparatus comprising:

  • an accelerometer array having at least one silicon beam type accelerometer;

    non-volatile memory;

    a clock timer; and

    a programmable control unit operatively coupled to the accelerometer array, at least one non-volatile memory, and clock timer, wherein the accelerometer array, the at least one non-volatile memory, the clock timer and the programmable control unit are formed as an integrated circuit on a common semiconductor substrate with the accelerometer array provided in a center of the common semiconductor substrate, and wherein the non-volatile memory stores acceleration data related to changes associated with acceleration of the structure along with correlated time data.
