The Tilt Sensor project demonstrates how to interface a tilt sensor module with an Arduino Mega to detect tilting movements. Tilt sensors are essential for applications requiring orientation detection, such as alarms, robotics, and orientation-sensitive devices.
- Arduino Mega
- Tilt Sensor Module
- Jumper Wires
- Connecting the Tilt Sensor to Arduino Mega:
- Signal Pin (tiltSensorPin): Connected to digital pin 2 on the Arduino Mega.
- GND Pin: Connected to the ground (GND) on the Arduino Mega.
-
Code Upload:
- Open the Arduino IDE and create a new sketch.
- Copy and paste the provided Arduino code into the sketch.
- Upload the code to the Arduino Mega.
-
Testing:
- Open the Serial Monitor in the Arduino IDE (set to 9600 baud).
- Observe the serial output indicating whether the tilt sensor is tilted or not.
- Tilt the sensor module to trigger state changes and verify responses.
- Orientation Detection: Detect orientation changes or tilt movements.
- Alarm Systems: Integrate tilt sensors for triggering alarms upon movement.
- Robotic Applications: Use tilt sensors to control robotic movements based on orientation.
- Sensor Calibration: Ensure proper orientation and sensitivity adjustment for accurate detection.
- Digital Output: Tilt sensor provides a digital HIGH or LOW signal indicating tilt state.
- Serial Monitoring: Use serial communication for real-time monitoring and debugging of tilt sensor readings.
