Mechanical guitar-playing robot

Guitar Top.Jpg “Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have created a mechanical guitar-playing robot, named the Crazy J. The guitar player is composed of two mechanical systems that interact to play a range of 29 musical notes. A plucking mechanism with six independently controlled picks is mounted over the body of the guitar and a fingering mechanism with an array of 23 fingertips is mounted over the first four frets of the fingerboard.” [via] Link.
