Abstract:
This uniquely augmented skateboard called the Lickr is a new musical controller instrument/toy. Equipped with a wireless microphone, battery pack, optical wheel rotation sensor, two proximity detectors, three gyro sensors and a bluetooth transmission device, the system tracks the 3D-movement of the skateboard. Movement is analyzed and turned into musical fantasy. The music becomes a game and skaters can jam like a band.
