Delivery due Monday. - -We made an Arduino program that prints acceleration and angular acceleration. We also worked on a program for drawing graphs of the different acceleration inputs from the arduino. We decided to use a ESP32 board and a MPU6050 sensor and ordered them. + - Looked at board, decided on an ESP32, specifically Arduino Nano ESP32 with an ESP32-S3. + - Looked at MPU6050 accelerometer, as it is often used for Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects. + - Bought the 2 components.
