Acceleromoter

[Lc1]

Hi
I have a question about accelerometers. Does anyone know of a company/supplier in the U.K. that supplies tri axis accelerometers that are wireless? Or even a bespoke unit that operates on radio telemetry?
Also a control unit is required which would be required to operate 2 trip signals when a set point is reached.

Every unit I have seen requires to be cabled but has anyone dealt with this kind of technology before?

Thanks

Those raspberry pis are awesome.

If this is for an industrial, or an application for placing on the market, you will be better off buying an off the shelf solution, else you will spend so much on getting it CE marked and compliant that it will cost you more.
An off the shelf solution will be CE marked, compliant and reliable.
If it's DIY, then fill yer boots.
