Hi all,
I'm planning to send out wooden boxes containing a few gifts as an invitation to be a groomsman in my wedding next year. Being the nerds that we are, I'd like to build in some hardware that outputs the audio from Zelda that executes when a chest is opened (
). The boxes are clamshell style, i.e. large rectangular volume with hinges connecting to a top piece that closes down and locks with a clasp.
Ideally this would be a 2-step sequence. External to the box I will have a pin keeping the clasp shut that when removed will provide a prompt to the device to execute audio sequence 1. A second signal would be generated on opening the box (source tbd... picturing hall effect sensor with magnet) to prompt a second audio sequence. I am first wondering if a part exists that will handle this which can be purchased off the shelf. If not I will consider spinning a custom board, in which case your suggestions for an IC would be appreciated.
Thanks!
