Based on the research we have conducted so far, we have decided on a few design specifications to begin our fabrication. These include:
These items will all be connected to create a working sensor. A simple prototype version of this sensor collecting accelerations in the x, y and z direction can be seen in the video below. The proposed attachment of the IMU's is shown in the image below.
