Hi

I would like measure the gravity for a patient in the ambulance. When the ambulance accelerates and when it stops.


I use the MX2125 Dual-Axis Accelerometer.

I have the book SMART SENSORS & APPLICATIONS. I dont understand how can·I get the value for X an Y in "g".·····

Thanks

Pierre

There are several examples and articles here www.parallax.com/Store/Sensors/AccelerationTilt/tabid/172/CategoryID/47/List/0/Level/a/ProductID/93/Default.aspx?SortField=ProductName%2cProductName that explain things. To get Gs you need to do math on the output of the accelerometer.
