The closer the object, the greater the pressure. Tacit is a wearable system that translates the distance to anything you aim your hand toward into pressure on your wrist. This ultrasonic “bat glove” lets you feel things at a distance. Then it would just obediently float along the floor behind me. I decided to make the vacuum self-levitating, to turn it into a hovercraft. That’s when I realized that the vacuum’s discharge air might be a way to do this. When I recently had to replace a worn-out shop vacuum, I looked for a way to improve the mobility of the new machine. They never rolled where I wanted them to. I have owned several shop vacuum cleaners, but regardless of the make, I never liked the way the casters worked. Mod your vacuum to float obediently behind you on a cushion of air. The system uses pattern recognition algorithms to identify patterns in the EMG signals and decide which colored button to activate. But since the electrical signal generated by twiddling your fingers is very weak, additional computation must be performed to generate reliably accurate commands. The technology to measure, evaluate, and process muscular electricity is called electromyography (EMG).Īir Guitar Hero uses EMG to send signals to the Wii console to control the game. While faint (in the millivolt range), these signals can be detected by placing electrode sensors on the skin. When a muscle contracts or flexes, it produces electrical activity. It uses an electrode cuff, a modified Wii guitar controller, and open source code.

Here we’ll show you how to make an inexpensive version so anyone can play Guitar Hero without pushing buttons. We created Air Guitar Hero as a fun rehabilitation exercise for people with amputations. Cheers! MAKE Volume 29ĭrop the controller and shred songs using the electrical signals from your arm muscles. Thank you all so much for being a part of our amazing community.

Every project listed below is linked to its entry on Make: Projects, where you can see the full how-to and start building to your heart’s content. It’s hard to select a handful of projects from the many we’ve printed over the year, but here’s a healthy array that reflects the variety we value. In 2012, we published MAKE Volumes 29, 30, 31, and 32. DIY is thankfully a part of mainstream culture now, and we’re thrilled to see so many people choosing to make instead of buy. Looking back on 2012, it’s hard to believe we’ve been producing MAKE magazine for eight years now! I remember working on Volume 01 back in 2005 and the excitement of launching something so new and renegade.
