Wireless Optical Piano Alex Crisci, Ryan Mancl, Evan Schrock December 1st, 2011
Agenda • Introduction • Original Design • System • Test & Verifications • Recommendations
Introduction • Eco-friendly wireless transmission • Multi-benefit system • Minimal delay • Bandwidth availability • Wide range of applications • Museum exhibit • Classroom hearing assistance http://www.hotwaves.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Haas-TED2.jpg Harald Haas during a TED talk
Original Design • Analog Signal Processing • Signal already digital • Unnecessary complications • Optical Filters • Mixer • Amplifiers Original Block Diagram
Modulation issues • Proposed Scheme • Digital Encoding • CDMA Based • 4:1 bit encoding • Why didn’t we use modulation • Signal was already digital • Simple design for cheaper implementation • Eliminate delay for real-time music playback • Achieved a fast enough signal without the PIC

Overall receiver • MIDI Out • Roland SC-8850 PCM-based MIDI sound module 3.3k 910 220 Anode PD 220 Cathode Schematic 3
Recap • Successful transmission of 33kHz signal via LED • Modularity for use with other signals • “Always on” light can be used for lighting and communication • Avoids over-crowded radio frequencies
Recommendations • Increasing distance between source and receiver • Receiver power supply • Better light filtration after using better light source • Tying system into a room • Expansion to other data types
