Hi guys,

A friend came at me with this one. It isn't specifically Perl, but it is for charity and could most likely be implemented with Perl glue - so I thought I would fly it past you guys.

A charity organization is organizing a fund raiser and needs a “clap meter” to gauge audience reaction to contestants in a beauty competition:

What we envisage is a computer generated peak audio meter which (1) Shows the peak audio response from the audience clapping and (2) also records the maximum reading obtained for a particular candidate.  This can be then projected onto a screen, realtime, for the audience to see.

They need a technical spec/design of what they need to achieve this.

Any ideas?

-Andrew.
