About this Simulation

This simulation models how accelerometers detect and measure acceleration in three-dimensional space. Learners can observe real-time changes in acceleration values (accX, accY, accZ) as orientation changes, visualizing how sensors respond to motion and gravitational forces across multiple axes simultaneously.

Learning objectives: Understand how accelerometers measure acceleration in three perpendicular directions | Interpret the relationship between object orientation and acceleration sensor output | Analyse how gravitational and kinetic acceleration components are detected
