Hi:
I have a project to make a circuit to flash an LED each time it detects an impact.
Basically I am trying to make a pair of flashing drumsticks from acrylic tubing with a 3/8" ID.
The challenge is the Int diameter (3/8") of the clear acrylic drumstick tube.
I am thinking about a 7555 smd one shot with a vibration sensor or maybe a piezo sensor. Driven off about 3V of watch batteries.
Can anyone suggest a suitable sensor that would fit? Perhaps a low power SMD microcontroller maybe a better soln than a 7555 timer.....as it would have an ADC to sample a piezo sensor.
