[sci.electronics] Altimeters

tmurphy@wpi.wpi.edu (Tom [Chris] Murphy) (02/04/90)

I am looking for a source for an electronic altimeter that can provide
a linear voltage proportional to altitude.  As an alternative, I would be
also interested in sources for devices that can provide a voltage proportional
to the device's tilt.  Thanks.

"Digital altimeter" pp 36 Electronics & Wireless World, June '86 with
feedback in August '86 issue pp 27.  I plan to build it soon.
