I am trying to make a device which has a 3-axis accelerometer and is capable of bluetooth communication. The device will be by itself and will be mainly performing data acquisition. Any suggestions?
what sort of distance would you have between the logger and the data receiver? what will be receiving the data?
my guess would be an Arduino, Xbee or bluetooth module and a 3axis accel from sparkfun.
So I found these http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/bluetooth-bee-standalone-p-1157.html?cPath=139_142 and https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11028 is it possible to connect these two together and then send data to a computer with the bluetooth?
Alternatively what I was thinking was http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/bluetooth-low-energy-shield-p-1255.html?cPath=132_134 and the same accelerometer from above. However which arduino board would be best suited for this.
the first two would work fine. you'd just need some soldering.
the second one will work fine with a regular arduino uno. also needs soldering for the imu wires
do you have the schematic diagram of the 1st one?
i want to build one for my project
