  • Day 8 of Stay In and Make/Do - Make world's most annoying musical instrument, the theremin.
    #StayHome 🏠😷 #WithMe #microbit
    Things can get quiet when you're in isolation. Make music to break the silence! This DIY microbit theremin is a musical instrument you can play without touching it.
    Stay in and Make/Do is my series of daily projects to keep you entertained while you're staying at home. They're mainly electronics projects using the BBC Micro:bit (an affordable and easy to obtain little micro controller you can program in a really simple way), and these projects are suitable for all ages and ability levels - whether or not you've ever written code before or programmed anything!

    Really like the content, however it’s technically not a theremin, as it uses light level, and not proximity. I built mine with an arduino mega (I know that’s a bit overkill) and an ultrasonic sensor, so it responds to how close something is, rather than how bright something is. However, great video, liked the project.

    Is it possible to make it play a musical scale instead of random notes?

      Absolutely! What you'd want to do is split the range of light levels into intervals, then assign a pitch to each one - so you'd have for example a bunch of blocks that said "If light level is between X and Y, ring tone Z Hz".
