Building a simple circuit with one input and one output. Light-depending resistors as input and piezo-electric sensors as output.

The aim of the project was to produce sound by using light as a stimulus. In Arduino language we are using five peizo as actuator and photo light resistor as external sensor. We gave it a fungus mushroom like shape, in which each fungus is rising out a common base made up of sand acrylic glass, which houses the Arduino and the bread board. Each fungus ends we an inverted aluminum cup, which not only gives it a fungus mushroom like look but it is also acts as an amplifier and conceal the piezos.
