Arduino MPU6050 Gravity Accelerometer Kit — Watch Invisible Forces Become Real-Time Numbers

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

Ever wondered how your phone knows which way is up? The Gravity Accelerometer Demo Kit with Arduino Uno + MPU6050 puts that exact same sensor technology on your desk. In under three hours, you’ll build a live g-force meter that reacts to every shake, tilt, and freefall — displaying real-time acceleration values on a crisp OLED screen. It’s the classic physics experiment made tangible, without hunting for separate parts or decoding scattered tutorials.

What You'll Build

A handheld accelerometer that reads 1.0g when the breadboard sits flat on a table, drops to near 0.0g when you toss it (catch it safely!), and spikes above 2g during a quick shake. The 0.96-inch OLED updates continuously so you can see exactly how motion changes gravitational acceleration. Use it for CBSE Class 11 physics practicals, ATL tinkering sessions, or just to satisfy your curiosity about the force you feel every day.

What You'll Learn

• How a MEMS accelerometer (MPU6050) measures linear acceleration along three axes
• I2C communication between Arduino Uno, sensor, and OLED — real embedded protocols, no simulators
• Converting raw sensor data into practical g-values (1g = 9.8 m/s²) and displaying them live
• Building a simple freefall detector and understanding inertial frames of reference

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Designed for curious minds aged 5–15 and the educators who guide them. If you’re in a CBSE Class 11–12 physics class, this is your go-to demonstration for acceleration due to gravity. ATL Tinkering Lab mentors will love the immediate, visual feedback it adds to sensor workshops. And if you’re a B.Tech first-year in ECE or EEE, you’ll appreciate the real I2C wiring and calibration exercise — no virtual labs required.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
