The origin of this project was the idea of give the user or users the ability to control the projection mapping over the building. This setup allowed us to have 4 buttons that triggered different visuals on the canvas and promote the interaction on one person and 4 drums or 4 people with one drums each.
An Arduino nano along a microphone module was installed inside each drum. The microphone sensed the audio peaks on the environment and the Arduino translates into keyboard commands. That way we can connect the hardware to any computer and It will detect the peaks as key presses. We use a simple project on Resolume Arena (a VJ software) to demonstrate the responsiveness and capabilities of the installation.
