Touch sensitive impact controlled electronic signal transfer device
First Claim
1. A system for translating physical contact with a surface into sounds, the system comprising:
- a. one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors, each configured to generate an electrical signal in direct response to impact applied thereto when subjected to contact with the surface, wherein the electrical signal generated varies with variations in the level of impact associated with contacting the one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors to the surface;
b. a sound module capable of translating the variable electrical signals received from the one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors into one or more sounds;
c. a glove for retaining the one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors for selectable impact thereof with the surface, wherein the piezoelectric sensors are integrated in the glove; and
d. a signal wire and a ground wire directly connecting the one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors through a junction box to the sound module without a switch therebetween for transferring the variable electrical signals from the one or more pressure sensitive piezoelectric sensors directly to the sound module.

Abstract
One embodiment of the Touch sensitive impact controlled signal transfer device invention whereas the invention is used as a musical glove device that sends electrical signals to a sound module when areas of the glove containing piezoelectric discs are tapped or otherwise impacted on a surface and where the force applied by impact to the piezoelectric disc or discs is interpreted by the sound module and said module produces a sound at a volume level directly related to the force of impact on the piezoelectric discs and where multiple piezoelectric disks are located in each glove allowing a plurality of sounds by tapping different areas of the glove, such as the palm, thumb and fingers.
