2. Tilt detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt_detector

   Sometimes tilt sensors are incorrectly called inclinometers because the sensors simply generate a signal (as opposed to inclinometers that generate a reading and a signal). A basic circuit using a tilt sensor is shown here. For this assembly, the components used are: a tilt sensor, a 470 Ohms resistor, a LED and a 3V power supply.

3. Tiltmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiltmeter

   A newer technology using microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors enables tilt angle measuring tasks to be performed conveniently in both single and dual axis mode. Ultra-high precision 2-axis MEMS driven digital inclinometer/ tiltmeter instruments are available for speedy angle measurement applications and surface profiling requiring very ...

4. Inclinometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer

   Two-axis inclinometers that are built with MEMS tilt sensors provides simultaneous two-dimensional angle readings of a surface plane tangent to earth datum. Typical advantages of using two-axis MEMS inclinometers over conventional single-axis "bubble" or mechanical leveling instruments may include:

5. Solar tracker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_tracker

   The axis of rotation for a horizontal single-axis tracker is horizontal with respect to the ground, and the axis can be on either a north-south line or a east-west line. The posts at either end of the axis of rotation of a horizontal single-axis tracker can be shared between trackers to lower the installation cost.

6. Gyroscope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope

   Diagram of a gyro wheel. Reaction arrows about the output axis (blue) correspond to forces applied about the input axis (green), and vice versa. A gyroscope is an instrument, consisting of a wheel mounted into two or three gimbals providing pivoted supports, for allowing the wheel to rotate about a single axis. A set of three gimbals, one ...

7. Transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_electron...

   A diagram of a single axis tilt sample holder for insertion into a TEM goniometer. Tilting of the holder is achieved by rotation of the entire goniometer. The most common is the side entry holder, where the specimen is placed near the tip of a long metal (brass or stainless steel) rod, with the specimen placed flat in a small bore.

8. Aerial photographic and satellite image interpretation

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_photographic_and...

   There are two causes of distortion. The first one is the tilt and tip of a plane. [4] When the aircraft is rising or descending it produces a tip. [4] When the aircraft leans in a particular direction during the aerial survey, it produces a tilt. [4] The tilt axis is perpendicular to the tip axis. [4] The second reason is the processing of ...

9. Sodar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SODAR

   The tilt angle, or zenith angle, is generally 15 to 30 degrees, and the horizontal beams are typically oriented at right angles to one another. Since the Doppler shift of the radial components along the tilted beams includes the influence of both the horizontal and vertical components of the wind, a correction for the vertical velocity is ...
