Ring Theft Unconventional Switch

The unconventional switch that we made works functionally by running power into a metal ring. The rest of the circuit is linked to a small loop of conductive tape wrapped around a finger. When the ring is worn by the finger with conductive tape, it triggers the unconventional switch, which in turn activates the running current through the rest of the circuit, activating the LED.

Artistically, this can be used as an anti-theft device. The context would be a metal model hand, with an LED indicator displaying the state of the ring. If the ring isn’t stolen, the LED indicator would glow. If the ring is stolen, the LED indicator would turn off.
