Accelerometer Usage Suggestions
Commenters propose or debate using accelerometers, IMUs, and motion sensors as simple solutions for motion detection, interactions like secret knocks, or features in devices and apps, often questioning why more complex sensors are needed.

Can't they just use an accelerometer?
Seems like a good application for accelerometers as well.
This is fantastic technology. Is this based on accelerometer measurements?
Accelerometer and pressure readings could be useful.
How does it work? Some imu / accelerometer sensing?
This is beyond cool. Are there any known side-effects to the sensor?
Have you considered adding an IMU/motion sensor?
Maybe they want you to use the motion sensor for that.
Why not use accelerometer for that
They have accelerometers, don't they? Can't it please be a SECRET KNOCK?
