In the Sound World you explore simplified virtual circuits on a 3D workbench. Here are the parts you will meet.
🔊 Buzzer — Makes a beep sound when powered.
📢 Speaker — Turns a changing electrical signal into sound. This game uses a simplified sound part.
Buzzer: Boop! I'm Zümre the Buzzer.
Buzzer: Give me power and I'll beep. I have polarity too — long leg is +, short leg is -.
Guide: Wire me up like an LED to hear me sing.
Guide: Make a doorbell — buzzer only beeps when the button is pressed.
LED: I'll be the warning light. When the alarm sounds, I light up too!
Speaker: I’m Hopa the Speaker. In this game I make sound when powered. A real speaker needs a changing audio signal and a suitable driver.
Speaker: On this virtual board, give me my own path across Bora’s + and – sides. The simplified game checks whether I have enough power.
Guide: Two buzzers? You can! Try wiring them in parallel and powering them with one switch.
