Mario Theme played on Stepper Motors with an Arduino

Back


Now that I've figured out how to store song information in flash memory on the Arduino, I can actually play full songs. This is a little suite of Mario Brothers themes that I put together. Enjoy! The sound you're hearing is coming entirely from the motors. The song information is taken from a MIDI file that I composed. An Arduino provides the necessary commands to spin the motors at the required frequencies. Note: See my earlier video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8L8hY8siUMQ Motor #2 buzzed a bit on the table this time. I'm going to find a better way to hold the motors still while still allowing them to vibrate.
