The Gravity Digital 360 Degree Tilt Sensor for Arduino is a simple and reliable motion detection module designed to sense tilt and orientation changes in any direction. Unlike traditional single-direction steel ball tilt switches, this sensor utilizes a cylindrical internal structure and a conductive metal ball that moves under the influence of gravity to establish or break an electrical connection. This unique design enables full 360-degree tilt detection, making it suitable for interactive projects, motion sensing systems, and orientation monitoring applications.
The sensor provides a digital output signal that can be directly interfaced with Arduino and other microcontroller platforms. Its mercury-free design offers a safer alternative to conventional mercury tilt switches while maintaining reliable switching performance. Easy integration through the Gravity interface simplifies development, allowing makers, students, and engineers to quickly create motion-activated devices, alarms, interactive installations, and automation systems.
