Wireless accellerometer

Post by alejj »

Dear all,

I would like to build a wireless accelerometer using the Adafruit LSM6DSOX sensor.

I need to pack it as small as possible and with a battery that would last 3-4 hrs. The data from the accelerometer would be streamed continuously to an app on Android/iOS that will do some processing on it.

I am more on the software side and not much on the hardware side, would you be so kind and advise me what would be the a suitable controller, bluetooth/wifi module, and battery? I hope I did not miss anything.

Thanks,
Ale

Consider an MCU/bluetooth (radio/WiFi) module with an accelerometer built in. The sensor market is competitive, so there is not much to distinguish one modern accelerometer from another.

Examples include Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense, https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather-sense etc.
