Motion detection, accelerometers, the iPhone
Aug 30 2007
I previously wrote about The dimension of space and movement in Mobile Applications, where I covered some of the virtues of accelerometer vs. optical approaches for motion detection. From my perspective, accelerometers rule!
Not sure if real, but in the video below you will see iPhone’s accelerometer in action courtesy of Medallia:
The folks at Medallia also posted to their blog the source code to access the iPhone’s accelerometer.
Is there a toolkit available for the iPhone that I’ve missed?

They do rule. There is an upcoming Sony Ericcson w910i device with an accelerometer built in and even a midp API for it.
