Most joke impact apps would fake detection through audio or simple triggers instead of reading the real sensor path.
beta v0.3.4
SlamX
Sensor-only MacBook impact detection with sound feedback.
A fun macOS utility that reads Apple SPU accelerometer data, detects sharp impact spikes, and plays local sound feedback with visible calibration.
I built a native macOS utility around HID accelerometer reports, calibration, threshold tuning, and local sound feedback.
It is a fun experiment, but also proof that the app reads actual device telemetry.
For Mac users who like weird native experiments with real sensor data.
