Scaffolding: Unconventional Switch, Team 12: James Davis & Michael Brucato


So, the basics of the switch is that it requires a negative charge to be activated, and once activated, the LED installed into the switch board will light up. The items used, aside from the standard switch board, are a can opener and an aluminum peach can. The Switch board is already positively and negatively charged but lacks a ground for the negative charge to travel. So, in order to fulfill that requirement, the aluminum can acts a ground, while the can opener acts as a conduit for the negative charge to travel. Once connected, the LED is charged and turns on.


The Diagram above shows the exact configuration that accomplishes the function discussed in the previous paragraph and shown below in the video.
