Nano Motion Detector Badge Kit with Arduino Nano + MPU6050
Build a Wearable Motion-Aware Badge with Arduino Nano and MPU6050
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 clipping a badge to your shirt that lights up with your every move — counting steps, sensing tilts, and showing your activity on a crisp OLED screen. This kit turns that idea into a real, wearable gadget you solder and code yourself. Perfect for showcasing at school science fairs or simply for the joy of making your own motion-aware accessory.
What You'll Build
A compact wearable badge that tracks your motion in real time: each step increments a counter, and tilting the badge changes the display pattern. The 0.96-inch OLED screen shows step count, tilt angle, and a fun activity meter. Power it from a rechargeable LiPo cell and wear it anywhere.
What You'll Learn
- How to wire and read data from the MPU6050 accelerometer+gyroscope module
- How to program an Arduino Nano to process motion data in real time
- How to drive an OLED display using I2C communication
- How to solder a reliable prototype circuit and power it with a rechargeable LiPo battery

Who This Kit Is For
Designed for curious minds aged 10 and up (with adult supervision for soldering), this kit fits CBSE Class 11–12 electronics projects, ATL Tinkering Lab sessions, and DIY enthusiasts who want a compact, wearable tech demo. Young inventors at school exhibitions, science fairs, or Smart India Hackathon junior editions will find it an engaging, hands-on introduction to motion sensing and embedded systems.
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.
What if I get stuck during the build?
The AI companion accessible via QR code walks you through every step; you can also reach our WhatsApp support for personalized help.
Is soldering experience required?
The kit includes a soldering iron and solder, and the AI companion provides a detailed soldering tutorial. Adult guidance is recommended for young builders.
How long does the battery last on the badge?
The 500mAh LiPo battery gives about 3–4 hours of continuous motion tracking on a full charge. Recharge via the TP4056 module from any USB source.
Can I wear the badge without an enclosure?
The kit does not include a physical enclosure; you'll build the circuit on the prototype board and can attach it to a badge clip or 3D-print your own case. The AI companion includes design ideas for a simple wearable enclosure.
Arduino Nano and MPU6050 in a badge enclosure detects motion steps and tilts. OLED shows activity count.
