patchlet - Wireless MIDI Controller

Link to the Project Website

This project is a wireless and wearable MIDI controller bracelet, called patchlet. It sends generic MIDI CC messages based on the pitch and roll. Those could then be mapped to control parameters in light software, but also synthesizers, visual art software, etc. The BoM and all design files including the code can be downloaded from the corresponding section on the project's website.

During the project I applied skills in software design, embedded programming with the ESP32 and the corresponding toolchain, PCB design and fabrication, and 3D design/CAD. A more detailed description of the product and the development process can be found at the project's website.

The patchlet is my final project of the Fab Academy, a joint full-time course with the MIT on rapid prototyping and digital fabrication.
