Test Tilts

Let’s test tilts: level, left, right, toward, and away from you.

When you vary the tilt angle from left to right, the x-axis accelerometer measurement values vary accordingly.

When you vary the tilt angle from facing toward you to facing away from you, the y-axis accelerometer measurement values also vary accordingly.

Example project: test_tilts_intro

• Enter this project and name it test_tilts_intro. 
• Flash the project into the micro:bit

• Open the terminal at Google Chrome Labs Serial Terminal.
• Take measurements as shown in the animation, recording the x and y values for each tilt angle in the table below the animation.
