Arduino Touch-Screen Piano


This is an interesting video I found on YouTube. I really like the integration of a touch-screen and the Arduino. I just wish there was more information about this project. I don't think this would be too difficult to reproduce in Processing?

Specs:
  • 8" touchscreen LCD from ebay
  • My super DELL computer ^^
  • Visual basic to create the Piano APP
  • Arduino Software to create the tone prog.
  • Arduino Dicimila +usb cable+piezo speaker.
