I don't know how feasible this is, and thats why I am here to ask questions of the experts! I am thinking about a new project that would monitor a car's acceleration, speed, and other parameters. Essentially, I would like to a make a cheap affordable device that could measure a cars 1/4 mile time, 0-60 time, breaking distance, etc.... I was thinking that this could all be done with an accelerometer, RTC, and a GPS module. However, I have some serious concerns about the GPS module. Will it accurately and quickly be able to gauge 60'? Most cars that I would run this with would have times 3.7-4.5 seconds so the GPS would have to be able to refresh fairly quickly.
Do any of the experts have any thoughts on this?
Thanks!
