ShockDraw

ShockDraw is a proof of concept program that I wrote to learn how to read the accelerometer in notebooks. Just start up ShockDraw and tilt your notebook to draw on the screen. Tilt it left and the line on the screen will move left, tilt it back and the line will move up on the screen. It isn’t meant to be a full game or anything other than a tech demo. I have provided both an executable and the source code if you are interested in seeing how it works. Keep in mind that it’s a tech demo and not production ready code.
