Inspiration
- Spicy Food
- A love for music
- Knowing we could measure stress response based on how spicy food you eat
What it does
Generates music using various skin sensors and leap motion.
How we built it
- Python
- MIDI Libraries
- Arduino
- Reaper MIDI Sequencer
Challenges we ran into
The Leap Motion was the biggest hurdle. Getting the leap motion to work on our systems and then be able to parse the data was the biggest challenge.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The various mathematical formulas we derived for transforming the raw data to numbers for output to MIDI
What we learned
MIDI Programming, Music Theory, Interfacing with Arduino and other hardware, and good project management
What's next for Picante
Extrapolate the systems to be abstract enough that others can hook their own sensors and use it.
Built With
- leap-motion
- midi.js
- python
- reaper
- rtmidi
