Ardu McDuino is an Arduino-based robot by John “XenonJohn” Dingley that uses 3D-printed fingers to play a bagpipe chanter. The fingers are an upgrade from the previous versions of Ardu McDuino that used simpler mechanisms to control the chanter.
Dingley outlined the steps of his build in a post on Instructables.
Bagpipe chanter playing robot. A chanter is a low cost device allowing you to learn to play the bagpipes. It resembles the important part of bagpipes, i.e. the part that plays the main tune with a reed and finger holes, you just blow down it for now until I can make a suitable air pump.
