Lesson Plan/Activity

Ultrasonic Theremin - NXT Ages: 12-18   

 

In this activity, use an NXT brick equipped with two ultrasonic sensors to emulate a Theremin, an electronic instrument. One sensor will change pitch as distance to an object changes, and the other sensor will change volume as the distance to an object changes. The Theremin is meant to be played with the hands, but any object that the ultrasonic sensors can pick up will work.
