What’s Tilt Sensor?

The tilt sensor is a component that can detect the tilting of an object. However it is only the

equivalent to a pushbutton activated through a different physical mechanism. This type of sensor

is the environmental-friendly version of a mercury-switch. It contains a metallic ball inside that

will commute the two pins of the device from on to off and viceversa if the sensor reaches a

certain angle.
