Need a gesture detection device? So we have the Grove 3-Axis Digital Accelerometer(1.5g) v1.3 especially for you. This is a low power as well as low profile capacitive MEMS sensor. It is based onA7660FC, a low power consumption module by Freescale. It features up to 10,000g shock survivability, thus its a highly durable device; moreover, it also has configurable samples per second rate.

This accelerometer is a great choice for generous applications that dont require too large measurement range because it is durable, energy-saving and cost-efficient. You can use it for various purposes. You can use it for motion detection of a robot as well as for sensing changes in the data. However, Various applications of this accelerometer include product orientation, mobile phone/PMP/PDAs orientation detection (portrait/landscape), image stability, text scroll, motion dialing, tap to mute.

For all Grove users (especially beginners), Seeed Studio provides guidance PDF documents. Please download and read through Preface Getting Started and Introduction to Grove before using the product. This is a suitable product for not only Grove users but also all electronic enthusiasts. So, why wait? Buy now!
