Thanks for the Wiimote suggestion. I borrowed one from a friend and was able to read acceleration data via Bluetooth with Nokia 770 Tablet. -- Sasha Pachev AskSasha Linux Consulting http://asksasha.com Fast Running Blog. http://fastrunningblog.com Run. Blog. Improve. Repeat. /* PLUG:

Bluetooth Accelerometer

A little off topic, but I believe more on topic than WiFi on Southwest :-) I am looking for a 3-D accelerometer that can collect the data and transmit it via Bluetooth. I looked online and found this: http://www.cc.gatech.edu/ccg/resources/btacc/ This is perfect, and they even tell you how to

Make.tv made a cool accelerometer from a wiimote. Actually they used a nunchuck and plugged it into some microcontroller (arduino?), added an LCD display and took it on a roller coaster. I can't find a link ATM, and the episode has already expired from my MythTV. On Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 2:41

I'm pretty sure it's the Computer Music Making episode. Description: CCRMA turns personal computers into an electronic symphony; hacking a Wii controller to match the G forces of other high-speed activities. I haven't watched it yet, and it's still on my MythTV box... RyanE On Tue, July 14,
