Hi, do you know Korg ? It’s a society that made synth ! They created the minilogue, one of the first mainstream monophonic synth. They created the volca too ! It was the cheapest real synthesizer with integrated sequencer, so every one can afford a real little synthesizer…

“But I already know kord dude!”

Silence, you’ve clicked, you read.

Today, they’re back with a collaboration with LittleBits to create a new synth ! Named Synth kit. It’s a simple principle, you have 11 different modules to create music, Oscillator, Sequencer, Filter. All of these scraps are divided in little slabs, you can plug it in any order if you want to create your own musical sound (and also, your music instrument). With the keyboard you can play some notes and then, with the sequencer you’ll register a little sequence of notes (yep, the sequencer make sequences, you’re surprised aren’t you?) and the synth speaker will play it.

LOOK AT IT! IT’S COOL!

The Synth kit is sold like a toy for kids. Because it’s simple to use, you just have to plug some stuff, turn 3 buttons and then you can play with the keyboard to create your music. But even if it’s just a toy, you can perform your music and use it profesionally. Advertisement is a good example of what this synth can do, you’ll find it here (go, go listen).

Well, in facts, The synth kit, it’s cool (YAY !) and approved by the editorial board!

a little glimpse of our game code

A maths contest is an individual game about maths! The goal is to answer Pico’s questions. There are two characters, Pico is presenting and you are the only player of the game.

HOW TO PLAY :
To begin you need to push the space bar, after you just have to answer Pico’s questions with your numeric keypad

There aren’t a lot of programs in this game, because we wanted to do something really simple
This game is an educative program, its goal is to train pupils to do some counting with specific numbers on a set of time

It was hard to create this game because we had to do something really simple, that pupils could understand.
you can find this game on internet : https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/132636399/

How robots can be used ? That’s a good question, robots can be used in various domains as the industry, medecine, space conquest, music or simply to have fun. A lot of people use robots every day. Personally, I used a robot last weekend, It was a robot which washes the floor. Robots are useful because they can make things which you don’t want to do but if there is a problem it cannot settle it.

Nao, learning robot

Numerous types of robots are being incorporated in education. For example, Nao which is a little robot primarily used to teach English, built in France, and presented for the first time in 2006. About six prototypes of Nao were designed between 2005 and 2007. However, the objective of most researchers in robotics is not for robots to replace teachers but to enhance the added value they can bring as a stimulating and an aid in the classroom.

I think robots are really useful and we will use robots everywhere in the future. We already use them in kitchen, cleaning, … Some robots can help you to choose your meal or your clothes… Maybe IA can overcome human in the future but I don’t think robots can do this because they need instructions, maybe robots can substitute humans and I think it’s a problem. But I think robots are very useful so I like them very much.
