Piezo switch
Videos
A piezo switch is an electrical switch based on the piezoelectric effect. The robust construction of these switches helps make them resistant to heavy use, weathering, neglect, and vandalism.

…contact-based switches are most commonly used for general purpose electrical switching, switches that have no moving parts are generally longer-lived. Piezo and capacitance switches are the two most popular non-mechanical switch types currently available. One advantage they have over mechanical contact-based…
This ruggedized signal at a pedestrian crossing incorporates a piezo switch for durability, as well as a piezo speaker to produce audible sound.
