Tilt Sensor Module – 1 or 2 Channel

Introducing the Tilt Sensor Module (1 or 2 Channel): Unleashing Precision in Motion Detection

In the ever-evolving landscape of electronics and sensor technologies, the sensor module emerges as a beacon of innovation and precision. Designed to cater to the diverse needs of engineers, hobbyists, and professionals alike, this module stands out as a versatile solution for motion detection, offering both 1 and 2 channel options to suit various applications.

The tilt sensor module comes with the basic components for operation. Attach it to object and it will detect whether the object is tilted. It uses SW-460D or SW-520D tilt sensor. The tilt sensor is a ball rolling type.

It comes with an M3 mounting hole for ease of attaching it to any object. It provides a tilt switch, high sensitivity and commonly being used for tilt detection. The module comes with a power LED and a status LED for a visual indicator.

The module will output logic LOW when the module is not tilted until the threshold angle; it will output logic HIGH when it is tilted over the threshold angle. We have tested, the tilt angle is quite big, from 45 degrees to 130 degrees. However, it depends on the angular velocity too. It can be used as a vibration sensor too.

The output can be directly connected with the MCU, through the microcontroller to detect level, thereby detecting the environment change of angle. It can be interfaced with any microcontroller with digital input such as Raspberry Pi, Arduino series for tilt detection capability.
