SO WHAT EXACTLY IS A TILT SENSOR...WHAT DOES IT DO?
simply put, it is an electronic device, quite small (about the size of an LED); it acts like an ordinary switch, the switch closes when the sensor is tilted and opens when brought to its original position.

and amongst other things, a tilt sensor can be used to determine angular deviation (from the normal).


SO WHAT COMPONENTS DO WE NEED FOR THIS CONNECTION?

•  ARDUINO BOARD AND CABLE
• BREADBOARD
• TILT SENSOR
• LED
• 220 OHM RESISTOR (FOR THE LED)
• 10K RESISTOR
• JUMPER WIRE

SEE WHAT THE SKETCH LOOKS LIKE

int tilt =4; // tilt sensor connected to digital pin 4

int led = 3;// led connected to pin 3

int x;

void setup(){

  pinMode(tilt,INPUT); //set tilt as input

  pinMode(led,OUTPUT);  //set led as output

}

void loop(){

  x= digitalRead(tilt); //read to know if tilt is closed

  digitalWrite(led,x);  //ON or OFF an LED according to detection

}

 AND FOR THE CONNECTION
