 I made two tilt sensors out of ball bearings and bic pens and positioned them on either side of the motor at different angles.
 When the motor/device is tilted in one direction, it will spin clockwise, and when tilted the other direction, counter-clockwise.
 As for the aesthetic of the device, it would be fitted to the duty it was designed to perform such as a handle for a fishing pole, etc.
 For testing, I affixed the components to a toilet paper tube with the tilt sensors pointing up a little bit so that they won't always be triggering.

	Hi I'm Seth.		Hi I'm Seth.

−	[[User:S8brown/Project \| ~~Project~~]]	+	For my midterm project, I created a tilt sensing motor.
		+	I made two tilt sensors out of ball bearings and bic pens and positioned them on either side of the motor at different angles.
		+	When the motor/device is tilted in one direction, it will spin clockwise, and when tilted the other direction, counter-clockwise.
		+	As for the aesthetic of the device, it would be fitted to the duty it was designed to perform such as a handle for a fishing pole, etc.
		+	For testing, I affixed the components to a toilet paper tube with the tilt sensors pointing up a little bit so that they won't always be triggering.
