Video : A Guitar made of Mobile Phones
A Guitar made of mobile phones has been demonstrated by a developer name Steffest. He has manged to create a mobile app running on 3 platforms Android , WinMo and iPhone and strapped these devices on to a woodean plank and has even shared a performance on youtube.
Watch the video below. Its pretty cool.
The Phone Guitar is born out of a presentation about mobile cross development.
To put my money where my mouth is, I decided to create the same mobile app – a small piano/drum sequencer thing - on 3 mobile platforms: Android, Windows Mobile and iPhone OS.
As a developer I didn’t quite succeed: audio latency is a b*tch and building the app from the same source proved to be possible but unusable, so I ended up writing it three times: in java for android, in C# for windows mobile and in Objective-C for iPhone. More on that later, but boy did I have fun playing with it
To play them all at once I just taped them on a piece of wood together with a battery powered speaker.
Add lots of audio cables and TADAAA: a very playable guitar shaped instrument that makes a hell of a noise
We have just one word – AWESOME !
