MDDN 251: Proposal


The three interfaces I will be looking at are:
-          Battery Alarm Clock
-          Ibanez LED Digital Auto Tuner
-          Television Remote

I chose these objects because they all have minor things in common which is he underlying topic of the chosen devices and have multiple components that can be easily manipulated to my desires. They all have LEDs or LED displays that function after there has been a certain input into the device, the LED or sound that it creates being the output from this.




The chosen interface and modification is the LED Digital Auto Tuner and modifying it to do the reverse of it purpose. It created the most interesting modification by reversing the actual use of the device and creating something that is the opposite of what it was originally for. I want to be able to play an LED or a pattern of LEDs and create the sound from a speaker that corresponds with that particular LED (e.g. the 4D sharp LED lights up and the note that corresponds with that LED sounds out from the speaker). This will include the Auto Tuner, a speaker (possibly the one that’s connected to the digital analogue alarm clock) and some understanding of electronics and how to work the Ardiuno.

Components Needed:
-          LED Digital Auto Tuner
-          Soldering Iron
-          Solder
-          Arduino
-          Speaker system
-          LED
-          Wires
-          Other Small Components
