/* 
Knock Sensor
   This sketch reads a piezo element to detect a knocking sound.
   It reads an analog pin and compares the result to a set threshold.
   If the result is greater than the threshold, it writes
   "knock" to the serial port, and toggles the LED on pin 13.

   The circuit:
	* + connection of the piezo attached to analog in 0
	* - connection of the piezo attached to ground
	* 1-megohm resistor attached from analog in 0 to ground

// these constants won't change:

const int knockSensor = A0; // the piezo is connected to analog pin 0
const int threshold = 100;  // threshold value to decide when the detected sound is a knock or not

// these variables will change:
int sensorReading = 0;      // variable to store the value read from the sensor pin
int ledState = LOW;         // variable used to store the last LED status, to toggle the light

void setup() {
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // declare the ledPin as as OUTPUT
  Serial.begin(9600);       // use the serial port
}

void loop() {
  // read the sensor and store it in the variable sensorReading:
  sensorReading = analogRead(knockSensor);

  // if the sensor reading is greater than the threshold:
  if (sensorReading >= threshold) {
    // toggle the status of the ledPin:
    ledState = !ledState;
    // update the LED pin itself:
    digitalWrite(ledPin, ledState);
    // send the string "Knock!" back to the computer, followed by newline
    Serial.println("Knock!");
  }
  delay(100);  // delay to avoid overloading the serial port buffer
