Coming Soon, Accelerometer/gyro/temperature Sensor

I'm excited to introduce the new items that we will be adding to the store in a week or two. This is a new ez-bit which is an all-in-one Accelerometer/Gyro/Temperature sensor. Here is the new format for ez-bit sensors - which are compact enough to fit in your revolution or custom robot.

Here is the manual page for the device: http://www.ez-robot.com/Tutorials/Help.aspx?id=209

Here's a video where I demonstrate the accelerometer with JD!

You owe me a coffee!.. I spilled it when I fell off my chair:)

That's awesome. I love how it fits so nicely in to the spare EZ-Bit connectors.

@Rich... If you had the ezbit accelerometer taped to your butt, you would know how to get up then....:P

The accelerometer and gyro will be really useful in so many of my projects.... Nice work you guys....

I see its a 4 wire connection, Is this going to be communicating through the I2C?

He did say in the video it was plugging into the I2C port, so yes. (which is good because I am out of digital ports in my Roli (extended the arm length and added a headlight and laser).
