Time-lapse ,Winter 2018 - M327 Haptic Devices with Allison Okamura Music: Little Green Men Rock and Roll by MyTwangyGuitar


Haptic Feedback: User playing while using the haptic device’s “tugging” feeling to locate the correct note

About the setup:

  • The guitar is quick wood router prop we made to provide users with a physical instrument to interact without the risk breaking my violin

  • The potentiometer strip uses GarageBand and an Arduino to output sound based on the location pressed, in essence an electric guitar string

  • The 3D printed device worn on the finger uses a servo motor to “tap” the user in the direction needed to achieve the correct pitch

Visual Feedback: user looking at a digital tuning scale while playing
