They're commonly used as drum triggers. Shouldn't be too hard to get an arduino to read one from an analog input.","subreddit_name":"arduino","author":"slackinfux"},{"body":"Realistically, not unless they're very large or get impacted (directly) strongly. Small piezo elements can have very short, high voltage peaks (dozens of volts) on impact events, but a simple RC low-pass filter will drop those down to reasonable levels without issue.\r\n\r\nI'd say buy a pack of these and try them out. They'll pick up impact events just fine, but they won't work well at all for acceleration sensing unless you make some modifications.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/15Pcs-Trigger-Acoustic-Pickup-Guitar/dp/B07B8RJ8NX/\r\n\r\nFor general acceleration, I'd recommend just picking up an accelerometer IC like [this](https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13963). That one's 3 axis, so you only get lateral translation, not rotation. There are also 6-axis variants that add 3 rotation axes. These are the kinds of chips used in motion controllers, like those for game consoles.","subreddit_name":"AskElectronics","author":"willrandship"}]}
