Circuit Documentation
Summary of the Circuit
This circuit integrates an Arduino Nano microcontroller with an MPU-6050 motion sensor and an NRF24L01 wireless transceiver module. The Arduino Nano serves as the central processing unit, interfacing with the MPU-6050 to gather motion data and communicating wirelessly through the NRF24L01 module. A 12v Battery provides power to the system, with the Arduino Nano regulating the voltage for the other components.
