Exercises

  • Create your own computer mouse using the ADXL335 accelerometer. It should work in free air, and it should emit the current acceleration around the x- and y-axes. It should also have a left button and a right button. Write a Chrome app (or perhaps code in a programming language of your choice?) to control a mouse pointer on the screen.
