Question: #1

Closed thelonecabbage closed 6 years ago

thelonecabbage commented 6 years ago

Is the battery required to be a flat top?

Why do the calculations on the pendulum? Why not send the raw data back to the server?

BTW: very interested in this project. very cool.

For some reason I remembered reading on Amazon that the slot was for flat tops, but the contacts in the battery slot are sufficiently springy that I don't think flat top is a requirement. I don't have any button-top batteries to test with, though.

I'm doing the calculations on the device primarily with an eye toward supporting alternate endpoints—if people want to integrate it into pre-existing systems, it helps to have all the data already figured out.

Thanks for your interest!
