I just installed a neat little app on my Nokia N95 phone

its an inclinometer with a nice little interface showing a car tilting forward and backwards and sideways dependant upon the angle of the phone as the N95 has a built in accelerometer

Just wandered lol if anyone had considered using one for levelling a motorhome Wink



For those interested and with Nokia N95s can get the software

Why fit an accelerometer in a phone ?

Unless to supplement GPS in a tunnel, sort of thing.

Hi

there are loads of real uses for an accelerometer in a phone Rolling Eyes ...

Here is one Nuke uses to fend off CC wardens.... the accelerometer turns his ordinary N95 phone into a Star Wars Lightsaber Laughing
