Tagged "Drum"

As I wrote in my previous post “Using a Raspberry Pi as HDMI camera”, you can build your own inexpensive HDMI-camera with a Raspberry Pi Zero and a camera module.

Based on multiple examples from my book “Getting started with Java on Raspberry Pi”, I created a touchscreen controller for the drum booth of my son. Combined with relays boards and an Arduino this allows to control LED strips and different lights with a touch screen interface.

And another summer project got finished… ;-)
My sons drum corps teacher triggered me to build an Arduino Midi controller so he could practice his rhythm skills.

As a summer project requires, this project required a summer to get completed ;-)

I still need to think about a big (double) door and how to make that one with or without glass. But the booth itself is ready and the drum moved for a first test and audio measurement.

To work out my box-in-a-box I needed two types of materials: something “fluffy” for the walls, and something “strong” to carry the floor.

What do you get if you combine a drum-playing son and a father who doesn’t like to spend thousands of euros? A DIY drum booth! ;-)
