When you are interested in both robotics and music, something interesting is bound to come out of it. That\u2019s exactly the case for YouTube<\/a>r HalStar<\/a>, who tinkered with Raspberry Pi<\/a> and ended up building this remarkable (and talented) self-playing xylophone.<\/p>\n

HalStar, whose real name is St\u00e9phane, originally set out to learn more about robotics and to gain some hands-on experience with a variety of mechanical parts, including one they had never used before: solenoids. St\u00e9phane also wanted to further explore Raspberry Pi. And if the resultant product also reflected their interest in music? All the better.<\/p>\n

So, St\u00e9phane ended up creating a self-playing xylophone that can play tons of MIDI files. And yes, the instrument is technically<\/i> called a glockenspiel because the bars are made of metal (whereas those of a xylophone are made of wood), but St\u00e9phane chose to call it a xylophone as more people recognize that instrument.<\/p>\n
