Raspberry Pi plays the Glockenspiel

For those of you who just can’t be bothered to play their glockenspiel (come on, be honest), here’s the perfect project: program your Raspberry Pi to play it for you. Now why didn’t I think of that?

• The parts are designed using 2d design software and cut out on a CAM router.
• Assembly is with hot glue and a bunch of 3mm screws.
• The breadboard contains a couple of ULN2803 Darlington Drivers.
• Software written in Python and using the GPIO on the Raspberry Pi.
