CLAP SWITCH

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
