A vibration sensor includes a base, a conducting ring, a number of cantilevers, a number of resistors, a number of helical springs, and a number of pairs of first and second pins. One end of each cantilever is connected to the base; the other end of each cantilever defines a guiding cutout. The resistors are correspondingly inserted in the guiding cutout. The helical springs are correspondingly deposited between the conducting ring and the holding block. The conducting ring slides in the guiding cutout due to a vibration and contacts with the resistor. The first and second pins formed in the base for correspondingly connecting to a pair of resistors in each cantilever. The vibration sensor senses the direction of the vibration by detecting a resistance that changes with a position of the conducting ring.
