Sensor for when Arduino moves?

Hi, I am working on a project where I need to know in what direction the Arduino moves, and how far it moves. Does anyone know what sensor(s) to use, and the code?

Might want to review the how to get the best of the forum threads.

The sensor is an accelerometer. There are dozens to choose from. You will want one that is pretty sensitive. Digital output probably easier to work with.

Once you find the sensor that you want there should be documentation with it in terms of connections to your mystery board. Also a library to help with interface and learning its use with example code.
