Tilt Sensor Module SW-520D is a kind of sensor that tells the orientation change in the device. SW-520D tells us the planer orientation change in the system. The digital output flips when the presentation changes from horizontal to vertical and vertical to horizontal respectively. It also has a built-in potentiometer to adjust the initial position of the sensor.

There is a built-in red LED indicator that tells the change in position by glowing the light. This sensor comes handy with respect to the cost of the device when making low-cost and efficient systems like a security alarm, Robotic Arms, etc.
