Shot Scope Stage 1

We are in the die casting industry and are looking to use only accelerometers to plot position of a moving piston in one direction only. This is a feasibility study to confirm that accelerometers as the only sensory input can be used to track the speed and position of a pneumatic piston that accelerates from about .5m/s to speeds in the range of 2 m/s. Attached pdf is the more complete stage. Goal for this stage is to prove that mounting accelerometers on the moving piston is enough to track its speed and position with reasonable accuracy.
