Tilt Click Board

Overview

The Tilt Click Board™ from MikroE is a measurement Click Board™ that includes RPI-1035, a four-directional optical tilt sensor. This surface mount type optical sensor provides positional feedback by telling if the device is leaning left, right, forward or backward at a given moment. It also offers substantial benefits over mechanical or magnetic-based direction detector solutions, which also makes it an ideal solution for situations where the user only require direction detection and not highly precise positional measurements. The Tilt Click Board™ communicates with the target board MCU through MikroBUS PWM and INT lines to get Vout1 and Vout2 outputs from the sensor. It also has two onboard LED signals that are responsible for visual feedback from the sensor. The Tilt Click Board™ uses either a 3.3V or 5V power supply.

It is ideal for remote controls or game controllers, as well as applications related to robotics, or rotating displays.
