Build a Workplace Safety Clap Beat BPM Logger with Arduino Uno

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

A single clap can reveal whether a workplace is too noisy, too quiet, or dangerously rhythmic. This kit transforms hand claps into an LED light show while computing beats per minute-giving you a practical tool to explore factory floor safety, classroom noise levels, or even your own musical timing.

What You'll Build

You will assemble a compact noise logger that uses the KY-038 microphone to detect sharp sounds. Each clap triggers a row of five LEDs to flash in time, and the Arduino calculates beats per minute by measuring the gap between consecutive sound events. The result is a real-time visualizer of rhythmic noise-ideal for demonstrating workplace safety concepts like machine beat monitoring or alertness checks.

What You'll Learn

• Interface a KY-038 sound sensor with an Arduino Uno
• Write code to measure precise time intervals between acoustic events
• Calculate BPM from inter-clap timing using simple division
• Use LED patterns to represent rhythmic data for safety audits
