Daniel,
We've gotten velocity readings from our accelerometer.
We modified the Gyro class, and made the m_analog member public. That way we can use the accumulator support in the Gyro class for the Accelerometer instead.
We manually specified accumulator centers and deadbands.
We also tweaked the averaging and oversampling bits on the analog module.
We are still having some problems with precision, but the numbers as is are useable for some basic autonomous movements. Maybe even good enough to accumulate again to get displacement data... we'll see!
