In the end, we managed to place several servo motors that correctly play a melody on the kalimba. We faced many problems, such as the lack of servo motors we needed and the difficulty of making the notes sound correctly. However, this project has been enriching, interesting, and above all, exciting!
After coming up with the idea, we started by taking all the necessary measurements for our project. We designed rods to allow servo motors to play the notes. We also created a support to hold all the servo motors correctly. To do this, we used Fusion and then printed them in 3D.
So in the end, we got the idea from various forums to automate an instrument so it could be autonomous. We wanted to start with a violin, but I didn't want to risk damaging mine, so we decided to do it with a kalimba!
Initially, we spent a long time searching for a project that we would enjoy and find interesting to do. We dedicated one and a half sessions to finding an idea. We already knew that we wanted to create something related to music. At the beginning of the semester, we had already created a music box in just a few hours!"
