This sewable board adds motion and direction sensing to a Flora‑based wearable project. It combines a 3‑axis accelerometer, which senses orientation and motion by measuring gravity, and a magnetometer that detects the direction of magnetic fields, typically used to sense magnetic north. Together, the two let you track orientation and tilt, so your garment, accessory, or soft device can respond to how it’s moved, rotated, or positioned in space.

Key Specs (from description + common Flora‑style module behavior)

  • Interface: Digital I²C communication (uses the same SDA, SCL pads as Flora)
  • Power: Flora‑compatible 3.3 V logic (connect to 3V, GND, SDA, SCL via conductive thread)
  • Form factor: Circular, sewable pads aligned with Flora’s edge pins for easy, uncrossed conductive‑thread wiring
  • Usage: Typically used in e‑textiles, soft robotics, or interactive wearables for tilt‑based effects, orientation tracking, or simple compass feedback

Note: Product size and dimension may vary.
