Default Pitch & Roll sensor

Anyone know of any pitch/roll sensors that are designed specifically for
measuring pitch & roll in vessels? The units that I have found apparently are
more for static applications, and are affected by acceleration, so are not
accurate in dynamic situations.


Try this for a start. There are several manufacturers of electrolytic
sensors and I am sure you can get what you need in just about any output
configuration.

You might also try and contact BP Oil Shipping, they installed strain
monitoring on their Alaska tankers a few years ago.
