KY-031 Knock/Tap Sensor Module

Description

The KY-031 Tap Sensor Module is a vibration and knock detection module designed to detect physical taps, knocks, or impacts. It uses a built-in vibration switch that changes state when the module experiences a shock or tap, making it ideal for interactive electronics, security systems, and motion-triggered projects.

Compatible with Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, STM32, and other microcontrollers, the KY-031 provides a simple digital output that can be easily read by a GPIO pin. Its compact design makes it perfect for breadboard prototyping and embedded applications.

Whether you’re building a knock-activated light, vibration alarm, or interactive robotics project, the KY-031 offers an easy and reliable solution.
