MC18 Accelerometer Module for Embedded Platforms

The objective is to have a clear understanding of how accelerometer is interfaced and controlled with microcontroller. It has various terminals for connection to external real world applications. Accelerometer module will provide a basic understanding of the accelerometer fundamentals, gravity & freefall detection. Accelerometer Sensor can measure gravity of earth & dynamic acceleration in all three axis.

MC18, Accelerometer module for Embedded Platforms is an ideal platform to enhance education, training, skills & development amongs our young minds.
