Tilt Sensor Experiments
After completing the Tilt Sensor project, test yourself by trying these experiments.
1 | Noticed that the tilt sensor connections are exactly the same as the push button connections. |
![]() |
To simplify the connections (just like with the push button) we can use the internal pull-down resistor instead of the external resistor. | ![]() | |
To use the internal pull-down resistor, set the | ![]() | |
Remove the external 22K ohm resistor and the wire that connects the resistor to GND on the breadboard and then run your modified program.
You should get the same result. | ||
2 | Create a device that will sound an audible alarm and flash a red warning light when an object has fallen over. Hint: Combine a tilt sensor, buzzer, and a red LED. | |
