A music tempo calculation system uses a microphone to input ambient music; the input is then processed in real time to display beats per minute (BPM). Input from the microphone is decomposed by a detector into a plurality of digital signals ranging from a most sensitive signal to a least sensitive signal. A software-implemented algorithm is applied to the time between peak music values to determine tempo. BPM is then output to a display to provide feedback to performing musicians regarding tempo. The sensitivity of the detector adjusts automatically to compensate for changes in music volume. In another embodiment, the calculated tempo is used to control motors used to animate toys. Once BPM is known, the moment of an upcoming beat can be anticipated. It then becomes possible to start, stop, and reverse directions of a motor in anticipation of an upcoming beat thereby providing the appearance the animated toy is responding to music beat.

A battery power supply with extended shelf-life is composed of a plurality of batteries connected in series with a switching element and voltage booster. The switching element is composed of a transistor in parallel with a passive component that produces a voltage drop when the transistor is off. The voltage booster maintains an output voltage at set value when battery capacity deteriorates. A micro-controller is used to monitor voltage potentials to detect the presence of an external load. When no load is detected, all active components are disabled to conserve energy and avoid self-discharge.
