Solo musicians looking for accompaniment may be
interested in a new smart percussion robot called the Cabot, which is launched
by Kickstarter this month to raise the required funds to go into production.
The Cabot percussion robot can be controlled using its companion smartphone
application and plays a cajon box drum for a “whole new jamming experience” say
its creators.
Equipped with three physical arms the Cabot is
capable of striking the cajon to send out natural, acoustic sound waves with
bass thuds and snare cracks.
Create your own rhythms with the smartphone apps or
download beats created by other users. The application easily synchronises with
other equipment via MIDI the team are already working on new updates for the
app to make the Cabot percussion robot even smarter.
