MPU6050 Motion Sensing Starter Kit with Arduino Uno & OLED Display
Build a Real-Time Tilt Angle Display - MPU6050 Gyro Accelerometer Kit with Arduino Uno & OLED
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 smartphone knows when you tilt it? This kit lets you build your own tilt-angle display that reads real-time motion data from the MPU6050 gyroscope and accelerometer sensor. It's a perfect hands-on introduction to motion sensing, ideal for school science projects or anyone taking their first step into electronics.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a circuit that captures acceleration and angular velocity from the MPU6050, processes the numbers on the Arduino Uno, and shows the precise tilt angle in degrees on a crisp 0.96-inch OLED. The result is a fully functional proto-inclinometer that reacts instantly to hand movements-great for understanding pitch, roll, and how sensors track physical motion.
What You'll Learn
- How an MPU6050 sensor measures 3-axis acceleration and gyroscope data
- How to interface an OLED display with Arduino using I2C communication
- How to convert raw sensor readings into precise tilt angles using simple math
- How to build and debug a real-time motion sensing circuit on a breadboard

Who This Kit Is For
Perfect for CBSE students (classes 6-10) exploring sensor basics, participants in ATL Tinkering Labs or school science exhibitions, and young makers aged 10 and above who want a clear, guided introduction to motion sensing. Even first-year B.Tech ECE or EEE students at NIT, VIT, or BITS will find it a fast, reliable way to cement sensor-interfacing fundamentals.
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 gives you step-by-step instructions, and you can send a WhatsApp message for human help any time. Most builders resolve questions within minutes.
Can I use this kit without any prior coding experience?
Yes. The AI companion walks you through every line of the pre-written code, and the Arduino Uno is beginner-friendly. You just upload the sketch and tweak a few numbers-no programming knowledge required.
Will this kit work with my laptop?
The kit works with Windows, macOS, and Linux. You simply install the free Arduino IDE, connect the Uno via USB, and the AI companion guides you through driver setup and uploading the code.
Is the OLED ready to use, or do I need soldering?
The OLED module comes with pre-soldered header pins, so you just plug it straight into the breadboard. No soldering is needed-the entire project is built on a solderless breadboard.
MPU6050 reads 3-axis acceleration and gyroscope. OLED shows tilt angle in degrees. Motion sensing intro.
