Generic Rust accelerometer support, including traits and types for taking
readings from 2 or 3-axis accelerometers, intended for use with
platform-agnostic accelerometer drivers written using embedded-hal.

Uses no_std-oriented 2D and 3D vector types from the micromath.rs crate.

Additionally includes support for tracking device orientations using
accelerometer data.

  • Rust 1.31+

Supported Crates

The following dependent crates providing platform-agnostic accelerometer
drivers built on embedded-hal which also implement the Accelerometer
and/or the RawAccelerometer traits from this crate:

Orientation Tracking (3-axis accelerometers only)

ezgif-1-16e98d9b86ad

One of the main features of this crate is device orientation tracking for
3-axis accelerometers, which is gated under the orientation cargo feature
(enabled-by-default). This provides smartphone-like device position sensing
using an accelerometer alone, returned as one of the variants of the
accelerometer::Orientation enum.

See the accelerometer::Tracker documentation for more information.
