Designed for band Boston's 2017 HyperSpace Tour, this system triggers WS2812b leds on every drum hit using piezo sensors. The system is low-profile, waterproof, and stress-tested for road conditions. An on-board, high-contrast OLED screen allows settings to be customized on the fly, and noise thresholds adjusted and saved for drummers.
Materials: Teensy 3.2, WS2812b led strips, piezo sensors
Tools: Arduino, FastLED
