Introduction

 

In this post, we will learn how to Monitor MPU6050 Tilt Angle on Blynk using NodeMCU. This can be done by simply interfacing the MPU6050 6-axis Gyro/Accelerometer Sensor with NodeMCU. The Accelerometer sends X, Y, and Z acceleration forces. We need to convert those forces into X, Y, Z 3D angle to determine the 3D Orientation of the sensor. Then the measured tilt angle is sent to the Blynk Application using the Blynk cloud. So the tilt position can be monitored in IoT.

 

The gyroscope measures the position of rotation velocity or angle along with the X, Y, and Z-axis. It uses MEMS technology and the Coriolis effect for measurement. The outputs of the gyroscope are degrees per second, so to get the angular position, we just need to integrate the angular velocity.

 

You can refer to the previous post where we measured tilt angle using MPU6050 and send an SMS notification as fall detected when the defined threshold value is reached: IoT Based Fall Detection system using MPU6050 & NodeMCU ESP8266
