I have two scenarios, and I am trying to figure out appropriate sampling for these scenarios.
First scenario is a piece of equipment with an accelerometer on it. The piece of equipment is going to be activated suddenly and travel at 20ft/s for 21ms. It will also stop suddenly. I want to capture the data before and after the travel (but only a small window)
How should I calculate the sampling rate for the accelerometer?
Second one is very similar. I have an object with an IMU on it. The object will be thrown (tethered IMU) and is expected to spin/rotate etc. We want to capture the data of this for the duration of 150ms.
Same question: How should I determine the sampling frequency for this device?
