<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category:Roomba Design Lab (Winter 2007)]]<br /> <br /> Challenge #4 is intended to be a fun one: get the Roomba to play a tune. Four suggestions are given. <br /> <br /> There are many sources of information about this problem on the Internet. Apple Mac users may have a slightly easier time, however ultimately you need to send a sequence of notes to the Roomba for it to play automatically. This can be done from MAC, Windows or Linux. <br /> <br /> It may indeed be possible to write a direct interface (i.e. a program) that takes a MIDI file and &quot;pipes&quot; it directly to the Roomba. For example:<br /> [[http://www.midisite.co.uk/midi_search/star_wars_imperial_march.html http://www.midisite.co.uk/midi_search/star_wars_imperial_march.html]] has about 20 versions of the Star Wars Imperial March. The Roomba's MIDI palette is more limited than a musical keyboard, hence you may need to remove or truncate notes outside of the Roomba's audio range.<br /> <br /> More info at: <br /> <br /> [http://gicl.cs.drexel.edu/people/regli/tmp/roomba-module-v5.ppt [http://gicl.cs.drexel.edu/people/regli/tmp/roomba-module-v5.ppt]]</div>
