There is also a useful selection of switches and
sensors available as LilyPad parts, including
a slide switch, a push button, a light sensor,
a temperature sensor, and an accelerometer.
These modules contain all the necessary
resistors and connections so their pins can be
connected directly to a microcontroller module
without the need for any additional circuitry.
There are several types of actuators in the
LilyPad tool kit that can be used for decoration,
feedback, or display, including a vibrating motor,
a buzzer, and several types of LEDs.
As we’ve seen in previous chapters, sewable
battery holders work well ...
