Tilt switch DT project - NOT amateur radio


My grandson was very exited about this design and technology (DT) project at his school. It is a demo of a tilt switch. 

These are widely used in "man down" alarms in wireless devices where you can trigger a remote alarm if a person falls to the ground. This has applications in safety critical situations such as police radios. 

We might make an engineer of him yet!  He is excited about such things, which is good.
