Robotic Arm Turns Musician into Cyborg Drummer
A robotic drumming prosthesis created for drummer, Jason Barnes, essentially transforms him into a drumming cyborg.Built by Professor Gil Weinberg, of the Georgia Tech Lab, the robot has a motor which powers two drumsticks, and can be attached to humans. The first stick is controlled by the musicians' arms and electronically uses electromyography muscle sensors (EMG). The second stick basically "listens" to the tune being played and improvises.
