Heartbeat LED strip triggered by a sensor

I have a problem that I need to solve:

Just as a given sensor detects some movement a series of LEDs needs to be simultaneously lit as a heartbeat (duty cycle quickly rising from min to max and then back to min). What platform should I use? Presumably I'll need a transistor to power the series of over 30 LEDs. Do I need an interrupt to mark the triggering of this sensor signal?

Thanks in advance
