Which axis for accelerometer?
We have our accelerometer hooked up to the y-axis, but are getting fairly "twitchy" readings. We want to get an accurate reading so that we can try to compute velocity. Is the y-axis the right axis to do this? If not, which axis should we be using?
please and thank you for any information you might have.
