Key Features of Tilt Sensor Module
- Simple Digital Output: Clean HIGH/LOW signal via LM393 comparator - no complex analog processing needed
- Adjustable Sensitivity: Onboard potentiometer lets you fine-tune the tilt detection threshold for your specific application
- Mercury-Free Design: Uses a safe metallic ball-switch mechanism, making it environmentally friendly and RoHS compliant
- Visual Feedback: Built-in LED indicator lights up on tilt detection for easy debugging and testing
- Universal Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, and virtually any microcontroller at 3.3V or 5V logic
- Compact & Mountable: Small PCB footprint with mounting hole for secure installation in enclosures and project housings
Perfect For
- Anti-Theft Alarm System: Attach to valuable items like laptops, bags, or vehicles - trigger an alarm buzzer or SMS notification when the object is moved or tilted unexpectedly
- Robot Balance Detection: Monitor the orientation of a two-wheeled or walking robot and trigger corrective motor actions when tilt is detected
- Smart Mailbox Notification: Mount inside a mailbox lid to detect when mail is delivered, sending an alert to your phone via ESP32 and Wi-Fi
- Game Controller Input: Build a physical tilt-based game controller for interactive Arduino games - tilt left, right, forward, or backward to control gameplay
- Earthquake/Vibration Detector: Create a simple seismic activity monitor that logs tilt events with timestamps to an SD card or cloud dashboard
- Automatic Lighting System: Install on a desk lamp or reading light that turns on when tilted to the working position and off when returned upright
- Industrial Equipment Monitoring: Detect if machinery, panels, or enclosures have been tampered with or displaced from their correct orientation
- Learning & Education: Excellent introductory sensor for students learning digital input reading, interrupt handling, and conditional logic with Arduino
How It Works
The Tilt Sensor Module contains a small conductive ball inside a cylindrical cavity. When the module is upright, the ball rests against two contact pins, completing the circuit and producing a LOW output. When tilted beyond the threshold angle, the ball rolls away from the contacts, breaking the circuit and producing a HIGH output. The onboard LM393 comparator ensures a clean, bounce-free digital signal, and the potentiometer allows you to adjust the sensitivity threshold. Simply connect VCC, GND, and the digital output pin to your microcontroller and read the tilt state.
Pin Configuration
| VCC | Power supply input (3.3V - 5V DC) |
| GND | Ground connection |
| DO | Digital output - HIGH when tilted, LOW when upright |
| AO (if available) | Analog output - raw sensor voltage for advanced processing |
