    Labview should be able to do the integration for you. It's pretty good software.

    A couple of thoughts. 1. Your instrument should be able to do the integration to velocity and maybe displacement. Beware of double integration to displacement - it adds a lot of noise. 2. To convert a single frequency mathematically use: V=6.28fD and A=6.28fV where D=displacement in thousants...
