Cool! How fast is our wakeup at the moment? I want the Freerunner to
emit a frightened scream via loudspeaker during freefall (after freefall
it wouldn't be as impressive) and a broken glass simulation on the
display after impact. That broken glass effect will then disappear over
the duration of a few minutes, suggesting self-healing to the baffled
observer. I'll code something up to that effect.
;-)
Too long delays would somewhat defeat the usage of the accelerometers
for this purpose.
