An apparatus for an embedded sensor cable assembly, where a first cable assembly includes a cable portion and a connector portion. The cable portion includes a first embedded sensor and a second embedded sensor, where the first embedded sensor is electrically coupled to the second embedded sensor and where the first embedded sensor and the second embedded sensor is capable of registering orientation measurements. A microcontroller is electrically coupled to the connector portion, first embedded sensor and the second embedded sensor, where the microcontroller is capable of receiving the orientation measurements from the first embedded sensor and the second embedded sensor.
