ADXL345 Accelerometer Starter Kit with Arduino Uno & OLED – See Tilt & Tap in Real Time

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine holding a small breadboard in your hand, tilting it in any direction, and instantly seeing the angle change on a bright OLED screen. That’s exactly what you’ll create with this ADXL345 starter kit — a portable motion display that also detects taps and shows real-time acceleration vectors. It’s an exciting first project for CBSE Class 11–12 physics experiments, ATL Tinkering Lab activities, or simply satisfying your curiosity about how smartphone screens know which way is up.

What You'll Build

A compact accelerometer demo that reads X, Y, Z acceleration from the ADXL345 over I2C, calculates tilt angles, and draws live bars, numbers, and tap alerts on the 0.96-inch OLED. Power it with a 9V battery, hold it in your palm, and watch the display follow your every move. It doubles as a tap counter — perfect for demonstrating impact detection or motion-triggered events.

What You'll Learn

• How to wire and communicate with a 3-axis accelerometer using I2C protocol
• Converting raw acceleration values into meaningful tilt angles (pitch and roll)
• Programming tap detection with configurable thresholds and axis selection
• Rendering real-time sensor data on a 0.96-inch OLED using U8g2 or Adafruit GFX library
