Tilt sensor works on a similar principle of mercury switches (but is it not mercury type sensor) and also known as tilt switches inclinometer and rolling ball sensors. The sensor measures the tilt orientation and inclination in different axes in reference to a plane. It measures the tilt in reference to gravity and enables the easy detection of inclination and orientation. The sensor is very simple to use as has a digital output and an M3 mounting hole to mount with the object. It uses SW-460D/SW-520D sensor to detect tilt.
