Welcome! This tutorial will help you display an arrow pointing toward the logo! Let's get started.

Using the **accelerometer** sensor, the micro:bit can detect when the **logo** is oriented **up**. We call that the **logo up** event. We will use `on logo up` to register an event handler that will run when the **logo up** event happens.

```blocks
input.onGesture(Gesture.LogoUp, () => {
    
})
```

When the micro:bit goes logo up, the code nested under the `on logo up` function will run. Let's add a line of code to show LEDs in there.

```blocks
input.onGesture(Gesture.LogoUp, () => {
    basic.showLeds(`
        . . # . .
        . # # # .
        # # # # #
        . . # . .
        . . # . .
        `)
})
```

Run your code and try to turn around the micro:bit to see the **logo up** event in action!
