SCULK SENSOR

A wireless redstone component that detects vibrations (footsteps, block placement, etc.) within a 9-block radius and outputs a redstone signal. Different vibrations produce different signal strengths.

Crafting Recipe

Found in Deep Dark biome (not craftable)

Signal Behavior

Input

Vibrations (sound events) within 9-block radius

Output

Signal strength 1-15 depending on vibration type

Max Signal Strength

15

Delay

Varies (vibration travel time + 2 game ticks)

Modes

  • Passive detection
  • Filtered with wool

Common Uses

  • Wireless redstone
  • Sound-based triggers
  • Mob detection without line of sight
  • Hidden mechanisms

Common Mistakes

  • !Wool blocks vibrations between source and sensor
  • !Different actions produce different signal strengths
  • !Cooldown period between detections
