Aim
The aim of the project is to turn ON/OFF the LED lamp with clap sound.
Problem statement
In some families, there are members who are aged or physically challenged. Some might have met with an accident and struggle with the fractured legs. For these people, it would be very difficult to physically turn on or off the switches. In order to help them, we introduce a Clap Switch system which turns the switch on or off by detecting the clap sound
Material used
Input: Sound Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: LED Lamp
Battery: Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
SOUND SENSOR
The function of sound sensor is to detect clap sound and send the signal to the Brain unit (TinkerSpace board).
LED Lamp
The function of the LED lamp is to emit the light.
TinkerSpace Brain Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor sound sensor and control the white LED.
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case – 1: When sound is detected, the sound sensor (input) turns ON and sends the signal to the TinkerSpace brain board (brain). The sensor board turns ON the LED lamp (output).
Case – 2: When sound is detected again, the brain board turns OFF the buzzer.
Sound sensor ON —> LED Lamp ON
Sound sensor ON —> LED Lamp OFF
