Arduino Microcontroller

Just thought I would post a picture up of the microcontroller I am using. At the moment it spits out an x val, x velocity and x acceleration, y val, y velocity and y acceleration.

I still have to decide how to map these in the program. Hopefully I will be simply limiting it to two movements: foward/backwards movement and side to side. Though talking to some people, some feel the "forward/backward" makes more sense as scratching, other feel side to side feels more like scratching.



Many thanks to Justin Clayden for constructing and coding the microcontroller in Arduino for me! :)
