The Gist

For now this is just a simple experiment place for playing with an accelerometer on an Arduino (Duemilanove in particular).

Hardware

Accelerometer

The accelerometer used for this is a Memsic 2125.

T out -- 1 |----| 6 -- +5
Y out -- 2 | /\ | 5 -- X out
  Gnd -- 3 |----| 4 -- Gnd

LED Matrix

RGB LED Matrix and serial interface from Sparkfun.

Building

Not much to say - the pins are all configurable via the code. Connect up appropriate data pins, power, and ground.
