Music Gumball Machine

This is an imaginative and interactive project that seamlessly blends the charm of a handmade gumball machine with the enchantment of music generation. Employs a color sensor and a music maker MP3 shield to produce a symphony of melodies, each corresponding to a unique color. The result is an innovative fusion of aesthetics and technology that offers viewers a delightful multisensory experience. _{Physical Computing, Kelin Guang; Physical Computing & Fabrication, Peiyu Eva Zhou.}

Reimagine the gumball machine as a canvas for music and color, delivering an enchanting experience that marries aesthetics with technology. By inviting viewers to select their musical journey through color, this project transforms a traditional object into a musical adventure that is as engaging as it is memorable. Players can turn the gumball machine 1 - 5 times, and then we use a color sensor to detect the color of the balls it dispenses. The random-color balls that fall out will generate different music ambiances. _{check our demo on p5js}
