ADXL335 Module Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout
The 3 axis ADXL335 from Analog Devices is the latest in a long, proven line of analog sensors - the holy grail of accelerometers. The ADXL335 is a triple axis MEMS accelerometer with extremely low noise and power consumption - only 320uA! The sensor has a full sensing range of +/-3g. The Board comes fully assembled and tested with external components installed.

Arduino Example

Sample Code
//Analog read pins
const int xPin = 0;
const int yPin = 1;
const int zPin = 2;
//The minimum and maximum values that came from
//the accelerometer while standing still
//You very well may need to change these
int minVal = 265;
int maxVal = 402;
//to hold the caculated values
double x;
double y;
double z;
void setup(){
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop(){
//read the analog values from the accelerometer
int xRead = analogRead(xPin);
int yRead = analogRead(yPin);
int zRead = analogRead(zPin);
//convert read values to degrees -90 to 90 - Needed for atan2
int xAng = map(xRead, minVal, maxVal, -90, 90);
int yAng = map(yRead, minVal, maxVal, -90, 90);
int zAng = map(zRead, minVal, maxVal, -90, 90);
//Caculate 360deg values like so: atan2(-yAng, -zAng)
//atan2 outputs the value of -π to π (radians)
//We are then converting the radians to degrees
x = RAD_TO_DEG * (atan2(-yAng, -zAng) + PI);
y = RAD_TO_DEG * (atan2(-xAng, -zAng) + PI);
z = RAD_TO_DEG * (atan2(-yAng, -xAng) + PI);
//Output the caculations
Serial.print("x: ");
Serial.print(x);
Serial.print(" | y: ");
Serial.print(y);
Serial.print(" | z: ");
Serial.println(z);
delay(100);//just here to slow down the serial output - Easier to read
