The tripwire hook is a block that is used to detect entities when a part of the tripwire is passed through, it can be placed on the side of solid blocks and is armed with a string. If a player or another entity falls or steps on the tripwire when it is activated, it will power the tripwire hooks and be able to send a continuous redstone signal as long as an entity or player is on the tripwire.

Tripwires are only naturally generated in jungle temples and to pick them up you will need to break it with any tool or with your hands. Players can craft tripwire hooks by using an iron ingot, a stick, and a wood plank of any type. By placing a string between two tripwire hooks you can arm a tripwire.

Tripwire is a redstone component that can be used to detect entities or makes traps and it is also used in a few crafting recipes. When an entity activates the tripwire it will power any adjacent redstone components with a power level of 15. Breaking the tripwire hook, or breaking the block it is attached to, does not generate a pulse. Tripwires are used to craft crossbows and trapped chests.
