Re: Has anyone gotten useful data from the accelerometer?
Yes Ken, we all understand that it works perfectly in theory. I, however, have actually tried to implement this and failed miserably. The accelerometers simply are not reliable enough, coupled with the fact that a lot of the acceleration can occur in short spurts, which might not even be picked up by a given program loop.
Also: If you have a little bit of offset in your velocity calculation, then when you calculate position from that, it will be offset twice as bad.
If you have successfuly overcome these obstacles, please enlighten us.
