Hey! The idea of taking a picture "up there" is good.
The problem is finding "when" it is "up there". What I could thing right now is to take many pictures during the "flight" and then when the phone lands pick the one in the middle.
I'll study this more.. but for sure it is a good idea!

Welll... the accelero picks up acceleration, not velocity. Ideally acceleration is zero through the whole "journey". Since the accelerometer is inside (and fixed to) a heavier body it in fact suffers "accelerations" from within the phone itself (like when it is spinning) but that is very noisy...

indeed,I was a bit quick. acceleration should be constant, ideally 1G, if there is no rotation.
make a movie and select the top-frame is the easiest solution. or select top 10frames and combine them in a picture to get a sense of movement.
An accelerometer measures the proper acceleration it experiences relative to freefall.
