Project Overview
So we changed from using a guitar to a ukulele. A ukulele is much smaller and lighter compared to a guitar. It is easier to carry around and only has 4 strings.
Figuring out how to press the strings is a long process. It involves a lot of brainstorming. One of the ideas proposed was to use servos to rotate the tuning pegs of the ukulele. The problem with that is that the servo might twist too far and damage the ukulele. Another idea was to use a capo and a solenoid in addition to a servo to press the notes to play a full chord. The problem with this is that it is hard to push down without the ukulele resisting.
Goals
To successfully be able to play the ukulele using code.
To be able to participate in the orchestra of robotic information.
