DIY Solar Synthesizer
May 15, 08 10:15 PM PDT

I guess there are just way too many uses for solar power, and here's another to tickle your fancy. This DIY Solar Synthesizer can be worn around the wrist, allowing you to express yourself musically whenever the fancy strikes you.
Rows of buttons run along the underside of the wearer's wrist for triggering of musical tones and a light sensor is available for shifting the pitch of the tones being played. This design allows for a form of musical expression that integrates itself very intimately with the human body. Tapping with the fingers plays tones and movement of the wrist and arm shifts these tones in pitch up and down.
Necessity is the mother of invention, but so is boredom.
