This rolling ball tilt switch sensor is designed for Arduino and other microcontroller projects, providing reliable detection of orientation changes. The internal rolling ball makes or breaks an electrical connection based on tilt angle, making it ideal for shake-activated or tilt-sensing applications. With a compact 5.5mm diameter and 13.5mm length, it easily integrates into prototypes and DIY electronics.
