Description
A Tilt Sensor is a device that measures the orientation or inclination of an object relative to the ground. The sensor typically consists of a ball or pendulum inside a sealed container that is sensitive to the orientation of the object. When the object is tilted, the ball or pendulum moves, and this movement is detected by the sensor, which converts it into a signal that can be used to control other devices. Tilt sensors are commonly used in a variety of applications, such as controlling the movement of a robot, detecting the orientation of a smartphone, or triggering an alarm when a machine is tilted or knocked over. Tilt sensors are compact, easy to use, and reliable, making them a popular choice for a wide range of projects and applications.
