ultrasonic midi controller
My delvings for a hands-free midi controller have been using infrared detectors. Whilst they work fine, the shape of them (rectangular) requires the ability to cut similarly shaped holes in the aluminium casing. Sadly, it seems almost impossible to do … Continue reading →
