EG Project (SLDP)

Technology Requirements

To achieve the project's goal, several pieces of technology are required, including several buttons that will be the mode of interaction between the user and the game, LED lights that will convey visual information about the music to the user, and pistons that will move physical blocks up and down according to the music. The Samsong Galaxy Note itself will be encased in a rectangular case that could be 3D printed.

Relevance in Today's World

The Samsong Galaxy Note is relevant in today's world due to the rapid digitalization of all things in media. While many people still play real instruments, a lot of music production is done digitally, and music is also listened to in a digital format. Samsong Galaxy Note will sit in a happy medium between a physical instrument device and a digital device, allowing users to experience the best of both worlds.

My Role: Head of Programming

I am part of the team responsible for developing the Samsong Galaxy Note. As a member of the team, I will be involved in soldering, programming, circuitry, CAD, and collaborative work. The primary coding language used for the project is the Arduino programming language, and the Arduino IDE will be the main coding environment as well. Sample code libraries have already been found, which will give a head start to the development process.

Visual Information

LED lights will be incorporated behind the pistons to indicate when a music note is coming, and these could be different colors depending on the song or frequency of audio. This visual information will be used to convey the music to the user and enhance their overall experience with the Samsong Galaxy Note.
