Dizzy Code - ViolinX

Inspiration

The IPhone-TriPod Stand. One of our favorite hobbies is playing musical instruments, and we were inspired by the TriPod as a way to allow people with physical impairments like weak shoulders or scoilios to play the Violin.

What it does

It clamps onto any kind of table and is adjustable to fit anyone's needs. It holds a violin at the top that can be oriented in any way. This allows people with disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy, Muscular Dystrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, Spina Bifida, Arthritis, Scoliosis, or spinal cord injuries freely play the violin the same as fully able people do, in order to express themselves through music and participate in hobbies they never expected to.

How we built it

We built it from the ground up, making the base, the tower, the joints, and the X-holder all fully modular. All the parts are fully modular and connect to each other very easily, making it super easy to 3D print and use at home.

Challenges we ran into

Ball-joint, Violin Dimensioning, and Ideation.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

That we completed and made it fully functional on fusion 360. Furthermore, it is modular so we can print from a 3d Printer if we want to use it.

What we learned

During this project, we learned a lot about the different types of joints, making screws, threading holes, and especially making ball joints.

What's next for Dizzy Code - ViolinX

Reaching more and more instruments, making music accessible for anyone, in any way they want.
