This Build Makes Measuring Height Simple #ArduinoMonday

2_en

Useful project, especially if you have kids, from HomeMadeGarbage up on Hackster.io.

Place the microcomputer Arduino Nano and 6-axis motion sensor MPU6050 in the box, the power supply was used a 9V battery.

MPU6050 is used to measure x-axis and y-axis of acceleration for detect the horizontal direction. The LED (Neopixel) is green , when measure is horizontal. When non-horizontal is light red.

Distances are displayed on the LCD display .

RGB backlight positive LCD 16×2 + extras – black on RGB: This is a fancy upgrade to standard 16×2 LCDs, instead of just having blue and white, or red and black, this LCD has black characters on a full color RGB-backlight background! That means you can change the background color to anything you want – red, green, blue, pink, white, purple yellow, teal, salmon, chartreuse, or just leave it off for a neutral background. This LCD is the most daylight readable character LCD we have and is very beautiful and easy to read no matter what color/brighness you have for the backlight. (read more)
