AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies for converting manual percussion into audio signals for electronic percussion instruments fail to accurately detect and reproduce the strikes or strokes being converted electronically into audio signals for electronic percussion devices lack efficient and environmentally friendly simultaneous removal of Hg0 from flue gas and oxidized mercury (Hg2+) from waste liquid, with existing systems being costly and inefficient in detecting the force, duration, and location of strikes on drumheads.

Method used

An electronic percussion instrument with a resiliently connected drumhead and sensors to detect movement, convert strikes into audio signals, and adjust sound based on hit location, force, and duration, using optical and piezo sensors to measure displacement and vibrations.

Benefits of technology

Accurately detects and reproduces the force, duration, and location of strikes on drumheads, enabling precise audio signal conversion and customizable sound output, enhancing the playing experience.
