Wheelchair Based DJ Station: RAMPs

From the creator

John Schimmel teaches the Assistive Technology class at NYU's ITP program. The RAMPs project allows a wheelchair-bound DJ to roll up to a stationary set of rollers that are connected to rotary encoders attached to an Arduino. The interpreted data is then sent to a Processing sketch and used to blend or scratch audio tracks in real time. This device was created in 2005 for an individual with cerebral palsy who had a talent for rapping and also needed to hone his wheelchair skills. http://www.base2john.com http://makerfaire.com/pub/e/5500
