Vibration Detector:
Here we use a ceramic piezoelectric buzzer plate for vibration detection.
Piezoceramic buzzers generate sound through the bending vibrations of a thin
metal plate adhered to a piezoceramic disc.
These buzzers feature low power consumption, a safe, spark-free, non-contact
structure, a small size and light weight for an easy mounting to printed circuit
boards. As a result, an increasing number of piezoceramic buzzers are now used to
generate an artificial voice in combination with voice synthesizing ICs. To produce
high quality piezoceramic buzzers, FDK has capitalized on many years of
piezoceramics production and outstanding ceramic processing technologies and
thin film forming techniques.
By adding a sophisticated audio know-how to this manufacturing expertise, FDK
offers a large array of electronic tone generating products, such as piezoceramic
diaphragms, sounders and buzzers, to meet loud sound outputs, wide frequency
ranges and many other requirements.
We will be fixing this vibrator detector to each side of the vehicle so that when the
vehicle is met with an accident or if it hits any object, it can be detected.
The arrangement of this sensor in our project is as shown in the figure above which
is sensed by the microcontroller. After sensing the signal, the corresponding action
is done by the microcontroller which is preprogrammed.
