Class AccelerationConverter

java.lang.Object
com.irurueta.units.AccelerationConverter
public class AccelerationConverter extends Object
Does acceleration conversions to different units. To prevent loss of accuracy, conversion should only be done as a final step before displaying acceleration measurements.
