Arduino Uno Super Starter Kit Tilt Ball Switch

We will now look at the tilt ball switch on our Arduino Uno super starter kit. Tilt sensors (tilt ball switch) allow you to detect orientation or inclination. They are small, inexpensive, low-power, and easy-to-use. If used properly, they will not wear out. Their simplicity makes them popular for toys, gadgets, and appliances. Tilt ball switches are sometimes referred to as "mercury switches", "tilt switches", or "rolling ball sensors". We will be wiring a tilt ball switch to our Arduino UNO R3 controller on our super starter kit. Let’s get started. This kit is available from Amazon.
