Patent ID: 11892321

Abstract:
The present disclosure discloses a device (100) for determining orientation of an object. The device includes a hollow spherical member (101), which is filled with a fluid medium (109). A plurality of sensors (102) is positioned on a circumference of the hollow spherical member. Further, the device comprises a light source (104) fixed within the hollow spherical member, and a capsule (103) is disposed within the hollow spherical member. The capsule is configured to displace within the hollow spherical member and occupy uppermost point of the hollow spherical member. The capsule covers the one or more sensors at the corresponding uppermost point and, thus blocks impingement of light on to corresponding one or more sensors. The blocked one or more sensors activate or deactivate, and generate a feedback or input signal, which is received by a computing unit (107), to determine orientation of the object.
