I have been tried to monitor of the hand acceleration in swimming strokes
these two years. I know one developer who manufacture the underwater
accelerometer. It' name is "Bruel and Kjar" in Denmark. URL is www.bk.dk.
Please check it. But they make only single axis underwater accelerometer.
So, we have been developed underwater accelerometer device by ourselves. We
use ADXL250 which is bi-axes accelerometer IC chip. And we have used it in
our recent study which will be presented at next years sports engineering
conference in Sydney. Please look our custom made device,
