Make: Online : Cellphone-based beat sequencer

Cellphone-based beat sequencer

Designed as a multiplayer version of his skittle-based sequencer, Kyle McDonald created this camera-driven beat making setup using webcam, projector, and openFrameworks based software. Since it's deriving data from each phone's lit screen, it would seem this could become a flashlight-based sequencer with ease. Info on Vimeo - I See Beats

flashlight based,

or laser, or LED... and if you use different colors, you could assign each one to its own palette of samples :) Thanks for the feature!
