Hi! My name is Jeff. I’m new to the community, and I need help for my architecture project urgently. As the topic says, I have a problem with how to make it actually since I have zero background on computer science. I’ve searched several tutorials and websites relative to what I want to build, but have no idea how to combine each other. Also, coding is a big issue for me. The seismic sensor that I’m building requires to sound and flash LED strip (or serial LED light bulbs) in red color when earthquake strikes; however, I want to eliminate the chance of sensing unrelated energy such as people walking (how to code a threshold after reaching a certain amount of energy may be what I’m looking for). If the circuits can be supported by small solar panel or solar cell would be a plus.
The followings are the circuits I’ve tried by myself and worked:

The followings are the components I’ve bought, but some of them I don’t know how to use or how should I connect:
-Adafruit NeoPixel Digital RGB LED Strip - White 60 LED - WHITE

-9V to Barrel Jack Adapter

I have several types of wires, capacitors, LED light bulbs, and transistors with me. I also have soldering skills. If recommend other components, I would also purchase. Please help me on connection and coding, and please show me with pictures or indicators so that I can understand more quickly and acurately, thanks!
