Hand held vibration
Maybe an option to use as an instant vibration probe, I want to use just the Y axis and hold my iPhone against, gearboxes etc and get an instant
digital number read out in mm/s peak to peak.
Thanks
Gareth

Vibration Probe
Sorry I did not respond sooner, I have been traveling.
That is an interesting idea. I have tried converting the acceleration directly to mm/s without much luck. The problem is that there is a significant
offset on each channel so integrating to get velocity does not work unless you use a high pass filter on the acceleration data. Can you tell me what
frequencies you are interested in monitoring? If the frequencies lower than this value are filtered then such a probe might be possible.
