Elecrow Crowtail-Tilt Switch 2.0 Module - Digital Output Sensor
The Elecrow Crowtail-Tilt Switch 2.0 is a digital orientation sensor module compatible with Crowtail and Arduino platforms. It provides a simple HIGH/LOW output signal to detect vertical versus horizontal positioning, ideal for basic tilt-sensing applications.
Features
- Digital Tilt Detection: Outputs logic HIGH when vertical and logic LOW when horizontal.
- Crowtail/Arduino Compatible: Features a standardized 4-pin Crowtail interface for plug-and-play connectivity.
- Simple Ball-Contact Mechanism: Relies on internal conductive balls to make or break the circuit based on orientation.
- Compact Form Factor: Measures 20mm x 20mm for easy integration into space-constrained projects.

The Crowtail-Tilt Switch 2.0 operates on a straightforward electromechanical principle. Inside the module, a pair of conductive balls completes an electrical circuit when the sensor is oriented vertically, pulling the digital output pin HIGH. When tilted away from the vertical axis, the balls lose contact, breaking the circuit and causing the output to go LOW.
This binary output makes it exceptionally easy to interface with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi (via GPIO), or ESP32 boards without requiring analog-to-digital conversion or complex signal conditioning. The module is designed for basic orientation detection in educational kits, simple robotics, and device position monitoring.
