Product Description
The PhidgetAccelerometer 3-Axis is a three axis accelerometer that measures ±3 gravities (± 29.4m/s2) change per axis. It measures both dynamic acceleration (vibration) and static acceleration (gravity or tilt).
The module is calibrated at the factory and comes ready to use.
Product Features
• Measures ±3 gravities (± 29.4m/s2) change per axis
• Measure both dynamic acceleration (vibration) and static acceleration (gravity or tilt)
• Connects directly to a computer’s USB port
