The Sound Impact Sensor detects sound from up to 3 meters away, lending noise-activation possibilities to your project. This sensor also includes an onboard potentiometer for easy adjustment of the range of detection for the sensor. This sensor is compatible with all Parallax microcontrollers and sample code for both the BASIC Stamp 2 and the Propeller chip is below.
