i've been thinking recently about other applications for the openmoko, beyond the usual phone/maps/gps/internet access, and a couple of them require an accelerometer
i could find no mention of one in the wiki, either in the hardware list or the wish list. does anyone have any ideas? would this be unfeasable in a device like this for any particular reason? size? weight? power? thinking slightky laterally, could the vibrating battery be used in reverse to provide this sort of data, in a similar way to using an electric motor as a generator, or a speaker as a microphone? if anyone's interested, one of the ideas was to enable it to function as a pedometer _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
