Description

The electric keyboard uses the MPR121 I2C Capactive Touch Sensor with a Speaker, uLCD-144-G2, and RGB LED to emulate a standard electric keyboard. The features of the keyboard are controlled through Adafruit Bluefruit. The user is able to select between a PLAY mode and a LEARN mode. The LEARN mode teaches the user a select few songs to follow along with. The uLCD displays the correct note to be played on the touch sensor and the RGB LED indicates whether the user is hitting the correct square on the touch sensor. The PLAY mode allows the user to listen to the song they are learning from the LEARN mode. When LEARN and PLAY are not in use, the touch sensor acts as a standard keyboard allowing users to play freely. Bluefruit has the ability to control some features on the standard keyboard such as volume, octave, and song choice.
