Description
The KY-030 Vibration Sensor Module is a simple yet effective sensor that detects vibrations or shocks and outputs a digital HIGH or LOW signal. It’s perfect for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and microcontroller projects that require motion or impact detection.
This compact module uses a built-in vibration switch that closes the circuit when a vibration is detected, making it ideal for security alarms, motion-activated devices, or interactive projects.
