Our project turns ping pong into an interactive sound experience. 

Ping pong is a game that is already very fun. Our project enhances the ping pong experience by incorporating musical elements into the game. The table and ping pong paddles are hooked up to piezo sensors, which detect vibrations. A sound is produced  when the table is hit and another sound is produced when the ball hits each one of the paddles. Players can activate different sample sounds and change certain aspects of the sound depending on which object the ball hits. Our project is also able to keep track of the score for the players. It does this through a set of win conditions that we programmed in Arduino. We also used a sound design program called Max MSP to change the sound in different ways.
