Special Sensor Modules

This is a bit of an "wish list" kind of thing but it would be awesome if we could make sensor modules that plugin to the system and let users control the synth.

Some cool sensor ideas

  • Gyroscope
  • Capacitive touch sensor
  • Radio Antenna (example)
  • Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
  • Photoresistor
  • Microphone
  • IR
  • Temperature/Humidity (maybe too crazy)

Reserved Analog Pins

For a few of these we would need to leave at least 1 analog pin open.

Onboard IR

It's worth noting the the Le Potato ships with an onboard IR sensor that we could likely tap into and get the IR feature right away.

The clarify what I mean by using an IR sensor. I really just mean we read the "raw" IR data and somehow map that to a MIDI CC (0->127) and users can blast it with random stuff like TV remotes, car keys and garage door openers to get totally wacky ™️ sounds.
