Abstract: Fabrication methods are provided for an electrolytic tilt sensor which includes a containment envelope defining an interior space; at least first and second electrodes disposed along, and in contact with, a first interior surface portion of the containment envelope, said first and second electrodes being spaced apart from each other to define a gap between respective opposing edges of the first and second electrodes; at least a third electrode disposed along and in contact with a second interior surface portion of the containment envelope opposite said first interior surface portion; an electrolyte solution at least partially filling the interior space of the containment envelope to provide a bubble; and means for hermetically sealing the containment envelope.
