How do you measure acceleration?
« on: April 01, 2014, 06:18:12 PM »
Do you have any trick to get an exact acceleration value?
Is there any Android app?
Or simply get a camera and record the acceleration?

I don't know if Android has it but I have an app on my iPhone called Speedometer and it is FREE. looks like an analog speedometer with trip odometer.
The only other thing I can think is the GPS app from Garmin also measures speed.
Hope this helps

You get a stopwatch and set it the instant that you accelerate and then click it off when you get to the speed you had in mind. It is very accurate if done correctly, considering your speedometer is very optimistic.
