Abstract
A tilt sensor is a device used to measure the tilt on many axes of a reference point. Tilt sensors measure the bending position according to gravity and are used in many applications. Slope sensors allow easy detection of direction or slope in the air. These tilt gauges have become increasingly popular and are being adapted for a growing number of high-end applications. As an example of practical application, the tilt sensor provides valuable information about an aircraft's vertical and horizontal tilt. This information also helps the pilot understand how to deal with obstacles during flight. In this paper, Hall-effect effective inclination and acceleration sensor design, which makes a real-time measurement, have been realized. 6 Hall-effect sensors with analog output (UGN-3503) have been used in the sensor structure. These sensors are placed in a machine, and the hall sensor outputs are continuously read according to the movement speed and direction of the sphere magnet placed in the assembly. Hall sensor outputs produce 0-5 Volt analog voltage according to the position of the magnet sphere to the sensor. It is clear that the sphere magnet moves according to the inclination of the mechanism when the mechanism is moved angularly, and the speed of movement from one point to the other changes according to the movement speed. Here, the sphere magnet moves between the hall sensors in the setup according to the ambient inclination and motion acceleration. Each sensor produces analog output values in the range of 0-5 V instantaneous according to the position of the spheroid. Generally defined, according to the sphere magnet position and movement speed, the data received from the hall sensors by the microcontroller have been sent to the computer or microcomputer unit as UART. In the next stage, the actual sensor has been removed. The angle and acceleration values have been continuously produced according to the mechanism's movement and output as UART. Thanks to the fact that the magnet is not left idle and is fixed with springs, problems such as vibration noises and wrong movements and the magnet leaning to the very edge and being out of position even at a slight inclination are prevented. In addition, the Hall-effect sensor outputs are given to an artificial neural network (ANN), and the slope and acceleration information is estimated in the ANN by training with the data obtained from the real-time slope and accelerometer sensor.
