Project 43 - Magnet Beep "K-12 JUNO STEM KIT"


K-12 JUNO STEM KIT


What You Can Build Using K-12 JUNO STEM KIT

The "Magnet Beep" project lets learners discover the magic of contactless control using a reed switch and a magnet to operate a buzzer. Move the magnet close to trigger a sound—demonstrating the basics of magnetic sensing and electronic signaling.


What You Can Learn

  • Magnetic Sensing: Understand how reed switches work by detecting the presence of a magnetic field to open or close a circuit.

  • Sound Signaling: Learn how simple sensors can activate buzzers to produce alarms or notifications.

  • Contactless Activation: Experience the benefits of contactless controls for safety and convenience.


Real Life Problem Solving

  • Door Alarms: Discover how reed switches are used in security systems to sound alarms when doors and windows open.

  • Smart Applications: Observe real-world uses for magnetic sensors, from fridge door alarms to safety locks.

  • Accessibility: Create solutions for people who need hands-free or easy-to-activate devices.
