Nov 8-Final Project Update

This week we've begun to work on our final project. We've sketched out a few drawings of what we want our drum head to look like and the materials that we will need.

Our drum will be made of two layers, one acrylic and one wood. In between these two layers, we will have four piezzo buzzers (one in each corner) to sense vibrations. These layers will be held together with electrical tape. We plan to run the wires through holes in the wood board so that the only thing visible from the top is the buzzers. The buzzers will each run to an analog pin in the arduino and then to ground. There will also be 4 small rubber feet in each corner to hold the board above the arduino and breadboard.
