SIMPLE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS USING TOUCHLESS TECHNOLOGY FOR KIDS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Musical instruments have been an important part of human culture since ancient times. In recent
decades, technological developments have allowed us to create more sophisticated and creative
musical instruments. one of them is by designing a simple musical instrument with arduinobased touchless technology. In recent years, touchless technology has become increasingly
popular in product and application development. Touchless technology allows users to interact
with devices in a contactless manner or in other words not touching the device itself. The
purpose of making a simple musical instrument design with touchless technology based on
Arduino is to design a musical instrument that can be used even without touching the musical
instrument. and it is also hoped that users, in this case children, will be interested or like the
musical instrument. In addition, by designing a simple musical instrument with arduino-based
touchless technology, it can provide an innovative and hygienic music playing experience for
children. meaning that the touchless technology used in the musical instrument can minimize
physical touch or physical contact for children, and also minimize the risk of transmission of
diseases or viruses in children. With the experimental method, namely realizing a simple musical
instrument with touchless technology, measurements can be made of the performance of the
musical instrument and the effectiveness of touchless technology which is the main factor in the
purpose of this tool, which is expected that children can be interested in the world of music
