Hi,
Thanks for the replies on the other post.
I was wondering whether i could make somthing where when placed on an uneven surfuce would result in a set of LEDs out of a row lighting up, eg if the surface was sloped to the left then the LEDs on the left of the product would light up, so the user could adjust the surface accordingly, to make it even.
However when searching on the web i found similar products that either used electrolyte or accelerometers to sence the tilt. I was wondering whether there is anything simpler that i could use?(like a PIC, or a tube with a ball bearing in it so when the product is tilted the ball bearing will meet with the contacts on that side and cause the LED(s) on that corresponding side to light up.)
The end product does not have to be complex and the simpler the circuit the better. I would be grateful if anyone had any suggestions, schematics or websites that i could look at.
Thanks
