Project 11

Vibration Light

Build the circuit as shown. Tap on the vibration switch (S4)

or bang on the table to sound an alarm.

Project 12

Vibration Alarm

Build the circuit as shown and turn on the slide switch (S1). The color

LED (D8) or red/yellow LED (D10) will light if the circuit is tilted or

moved. Experiment to see which tilt angles activate which LED.
If the circuit does not shut off when left alone on a flat surface, then tilt

it slightly so it turns off.

Project 13

Tilt Sensor

The tilt switch (S7)

contains a ball, which

activates contacts when

it rolls to either side due

to tilt or motion.

-20-

One side of the vibration switch connects

to a spring, and the other side connects to

a contact next to the spring. When the

switch is shaken, the spring bounces to

open or close the circuit.
