Claim 0:
1. A device (100) for determining orientation of an object, the device (100) comprising:
a hollow spherical member (101), wherein the hollow spherical member (101) is filled with a fluid medium (109);
a plurality of sensors (102), positioned on a circumference of the hollow spherical member (101);
a light source (104), provided within the hollow spherical member (101), the light source (104) is configured to illuminate the hollow spherical member (101), wherein, the light illuminated by the light source (104) is received by the plurality of sensors (102); and
a capsule (103) manufactured from opaque materials and disposed within the hollow spherical member (101), the capsule (103) occupies an uppermost point within the hollow spherical member (101) due to difference in density of the capsule (103) and the fluid medium (109), the uppermost point occupied by the capsule (103) varies corresponding to tilting of the hollow spherical member (101);
wherein, the capsule (103) is configured to block impingement of light on one or more sensors of the plurality of sensors (102), at the corresponding uppermost point within the hollow spherical member (101), for determining orientation of the object.
