Anyone know of a quick and dirty way to sense which way a PCB is oriented (orientated, same deal.) Something that I might be able to make from my junk box?
I guess the old way might have been a mercury reed switch, but I don't have any of those. And I can't use 'em, anyway.
An accelerometer seems like overkill. I don't need intermediate angles, simply horizontal or vertical with respect to the "plane" of the earth's surface.
