Abstract This paper deals with a new two dimensional clinometer based on dual axis micromachined accelerometers. The clinometer is a small and low-cost product, which is mainly developed to help golfers read easily the tilt of a putting green. First, this paper proposes the principle of two dimensional clinometer and also a calibration method with respect to the offset voltage and sensitivity of a accelerometer. Experimental results on the developed clinometer show that the proposed clinometer can provide useful information on the tilt angle and direction of an inclined plane.
