Welcome to the Log!

This week we established our schematic of visual-beats and has worked on the proposal. Instead of simply generating frequencies from speaker/amplifier, we decide to connect a xylophone to the Arduino board. So that we can see different patterns generated from different xylophone musics. We talked with our TA, Will about the theoretical feasibility and other potential improvements.

We are in the process of completing multiple sketches and finalizing our plan before purchasing items. We are working on circuit sketches for the Arduino/Xylophone set-up and computation... (Han/Li: if you guys can add/change some stuff from this sentence). We might be choosing to use a smaller speaker, but need to do more research in order to understand the level of sound we will be working with. We have considered using surface transducers/oscillator motors, but since we would rather have an output that plays music, we chose to stick with an optimal speaker. Understanding the audio engineering to how speakers work is a must before we begin building anything.
