Hit Sensor Module (Tap Sensor Module)

TThe Hit Sensor Module project demonstrates how to use a tap sensor with an Arduino Mega to detect taps or hits on a surface. The tap sensor provides a digital output signal that changes state when a tap or hit is detected. This project reads the digital signal from the tap sensor and prints a message to the Serial Monitor whenever a tap is detected.

Components Needed

• Arduino Mega
• Tap Sensor Module
• Jumper Wires

Instructions

Install Required Libraries:

No external libraries are required for this project.

Circuit Setup:

Connect the tap sensor module to the Arduino Mega as described in the circuit setup section.

Code Upload:

Open Arduino IDE and create a new sketch.

Copy and paste the provided Arduino code into the sketch.

Testing:

Upload the code to the Arduino Mega.

Open the serial monitor in Arduino IDE (set to 9600 baud).

Tap or hit the tap sensor module and observe the Serial Monitor for messages indicating detected taps.

Applications

Notes

Ensure the tap sensor module is securely mounted or positioned for accurate tap detection.

Adjust the delay time in the

Experiment with different sensor placements and configurations to optimize tap detection sensitivity and accuracy.

Calibration may be required based on sensor sensitivity and environmental conditions.
