Project Optron's objective is to provide the next step in music performance. The Optron was originally created by our team’s director Dr. Udell, an assistant professor at OSU. Designed to be intuitive to operate, the Optron can be played like an air guitar. Our team was tasked with designing and building the next iteration of The Optron. We had two objectives. The first objective was to redesign The Optron so it was more accessible to those with impaired hearing. The second objective was to make it open source so the public can build and contribute to this device. To make these improvements possible, Dr. Udell enlisted the help of Cymaspace. This group is based out of Portland, Oregon and helps make the arts more accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing. Using their expertise our team has created the next iteration of the Optron in the form of a device that will bring music to those that cannot hear.
