GY-511 Compass Module Features
Magnetic current and field are directly related to each other. When current flows in a wire (electrons start travelling in one direction), a magnetic field is created. The main idea of ​​compass sensors is based on this relationship. The direction of the earth's magnetic field affects the flow of electrons in the sensor. By measuring these changes in current, the sensor will be able to detect directions.
The GY-511 module uses the LSM303DLHC chip to detect and direct magn...
MMA7361 Accelerometer Module Features
The MMA7361 is a 3-axis accelerometer with ± 1.5g to ± 6g measuring range. You do not need a library and complex code to use MMA7361 accelerometer. In this module, there is an analog output voltage for each axis acceleration. As a result, you can read and analyze sensor's outputs using an analog-to-digital converter.

ADXL345 Accelerometer Module Features
ADXL345 accelerometer sensor can measure angle orientation and object path. The sensor can do that in three X, Y and Z axes. It can also measure dynamic and static acceleration forces. Dynamic acceleration force is due to motion and vibration and static acceleration is caused by gravity. The sensitivity range of the ADXL345 accelerometer sensor is from +-2g to +-16g. (g is approximately 9.8) For example, when this sensor is placed on a flat surface, its value is +1...
