Robot Inclination and Tilt Sensors
A tilt sensor can measure the tilting
in often two axes of a reference plane in two axes. In contrast, a
full motion would use at least three axes and often additional
sensors.Typical applications can be found in the industry and in
game controllers. Nintendo used tilt sensor technology in four
games for its Game Boy series of hand-held game systems. The tilt
sensor allows players to control aspects of the game by twisting
the game system.
