Using the accelerometer to detect vibration on Thingy:91

[Barry Huggins]

We are trying to see if it is possible to detect a vibration using the ADXL362 accelerometer on the Thing:91.  We have it setup to to trigger on motion, but we need to be able to read the accelerometer values to determine if there is a steady vibration.  Is there an sample that does something like this?

I expect that we will need to start with the sample for reading the ADXL362 and then try to tune the thresholds.

Thanks,

Barry

Hello Barry,

Is there an sample that does something like this?

Yes, there is a sample available in the Zephyr repository, the ADXL362: Three Axis Accelerometer sample. The Asset Tracker v2 application also uses the ADXL362 as described in the sensor module.

Kind regards,
Øyvind
