FrictionForge - Arduino Inclined Plane Friction Analyzer

About this project

Build an inclined plane friction coefficient measurement system using Arduino Uno with MPU6050 accelerometer to measure tilt angle and LDR break-beam sensor to detect sliding motion. Calculate static and kinetic friction coefficients (μ_s and μ_k), determine angle of repose, measure sliding acceleration, and verify friction force equations. Perfect for understanding tribology fundamentals, force resolution on slopes, friction modeling, and mechanical testing in surface interaction analysis.
