Question

Measuring tilt and shock

Hello everybody

 I want to make a sensor that can measure shock and tilt in transportation. What sensors are needed for measurement? Do you have a specific model recommendation?

It is very generic question. You need accelerometer. The type depends on many parameters, range for shock, power consumption, precision, size, price, ...

Very very generic recommendation could be LIS2DH12.
