<div class="im">&gt; &gt; Well, then you need an accelerometer [1]. [2] is said to be in the<br>
&gt; &gt; iPhone, but you probably want something easier to solder.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; With it you could get the inclination angle and then get the applied<br>
&gt; &gt; force. If you do it right you could even get a crashing sound when<br>
&gt; &gt; falling...<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I would recommend the &#39;bowsense&#39; from Notam/Hans Wilmers:<br>

</div>Fun project that also, but note, with Bluetoth they need long time to start<br>
the connection. And they don&#39;t explain in [3], page 18, why they add<br>
epsilon * a to the gravity estimater.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
&gt; It can measure the acceleration (including gravitation) vector in 3D,<br>
&gt; and can transmit it at a rate of 100 or 200 Hz via bluetooth to your PC.<br>
&gt; There you can transform it into OSC messages to control your synth<br>
&gt; (together with the pedal rate). And the included gyrometer might improve<br>
&gt; the the falling detection...<br>
<br>
</div>Isn&#39;t gyrometers a little expensive?<br>
