The kit includes all the components I use in this class, and an arduino clone.

In today’s lesson we demonstrate how to incorporate a tilt switch cutoff into a DC motor project. This is a useful method for cases where you would like to automatically turn your motors off in the case your project/device turns over or tips. This feature can be useful in a number of different projects and prototypes.
