So far my brother and I have measured about 200 roller coasters in Europe, Asia and USA.

The unit is versatile platform to use for logging data that is collected from sensors that is connected though a i2c-bus, the only modification to do is in the software logging-loop.
The files the unit is creating is csv-format that is simple to create graph from in ex. Excel.

The next thing to do is make a new sensor that can measure more that +/-6g in the Z-axis.
