    Further explanation of g with regards to accelerometers...

    Hello, Please may someone provide a little more explanation with regards to how the value of g affects an accelerometer's performance? My knowledge is limited in this field and I would like to know the following for generic accelerometer. For arguments sake I have chosen an Analog Devices...

    MC3635 Accelerometer SPI Interrupt Pin Question

    Hi Guys, I am using MC3635 Evaluation Board(EV3635B). There is no problem about SPI connection and i can read X,Y,Z movement via SPI. But i can not use interrupt pin as output. I want that let interrupt pin of the accelerometer give me HIGH when there is a tapping or movement and let me turn...

    Flow meter using accelerometer sensor?

    Hi All Is it possible to use an accelerometer to detect water flow in a pipe? I do not need to have accurate flow rates(LPM) unless is easily achieved, but just need to be able to detect that something is flowing. If I am correct this is possible from the vibrations?

    Accelerometer signal conditioning (ADC reading)

    Hello, I found a 3-axial accelerometer with +/-500g that has a +/-1.25V range. The bias voltage (0g) is at half of the reference given (It does not give negative voltage). If I'm supplying it with 3.3V, the bias voltage will be at 1.65V, so the range will be nominally 0.4V to 2.9V. I am to...

    Accelerometers in time-interleaving mode: problems and solutions

    Hello! I have multiple LIS2DS12 accelerometers; according datasheet, it is possible to get data rate high as 3200 and even 6400 Hz. In both cases there are built-in filter with 1420 or 2840 Hz cutt-off frequency. As this accelerometer have internal multiplexer, I can expect a sampling frequency...

    Accessing the accelaration data in BNO055 IMU sensor and calculate distance traveled

    hello @Mark Hughes , I read your BNo055 article. I am currently working with it. It is a part of a MOAB board and Im supposed to use it to calculate the distance moved by the bot on which the board is mounted in real time. I have the imupacket.py file whihc tells me that there are linear accel...

    tennis racket/ball speed/impact detection using the MPU-6050

    I have a mini project I'm trying to accomplish using an arduino nano and an mpu-6050. What my code does is basically trying to find the speed of the racket on impact and perhaps the impact force on the ball. What I have at the moment is that it it detects the interval of the tennis stroke and...
