Abstract
Based on the principle of force sensing, a digital inclinometer has been designed. It not only can check the degree of level, but also can measure the angle of a surface with any degree of inclination from 0° to 360°. The resolution of current implementation is 0.1°. This type of inclinometer can be used in various situations where there often exists the demanding of measuring an angle under the reference of gravity system.
