PhidgetAccelerometer 3-Axis

ID: 1059_0

This spatial board had a 3-axis, ±3g accelerometer and connects to your computer via USB.

Replaced by 1043_1B

Replaced by the 1043 – PhidgetSpatial Precision 0/0/3

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.

The PhidgetAccelerometer can be used in a large variety of applications and projects such as:

  • Sensing tilt in remotely operated vehicles.
  • Capturing motion input for gaming.
  • Capturing motion input for Human Interface Research.
  • Capturing long term vibration data to help with the analysis of machinery performance.
  • Detecting movement or presence by measuring structural vibration.

Comes packaged with
