DrumPants

Post by Lunkhead »

Somebody I know is working on a MIDI controller he's calling "DrumPants". It's basically six drum pad type sensors that talk over Bluetooth to your phone/tablet/PC, and they can be easily attached to your clothes. I thought some folks here might be interested in them.

DrumPants have launched their Kickstarter, check it out!

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/140 ... our-pocket

It looks pretty awesome. Check out the video if you're still not clear what the deal is. It's basically two strips of velocity sensitive drum pad type sensors that are very flexible and can be easily incorporated into clothing in a variety of ways. You can hook them up to a little box with a controller and sounds and speakers for standalone use, or connect them wirelessly to iOS/Android devices, or plug them in to desktops/laptops.
