Our NAO humanoid plays Jingle Bells for Christmas on a glockenspiel / xylophone. The robot can read a single-track song derived from MIDI and plays it on the instrument. Implementation by Stefan Band and Jonas Delleske.

Merry Christmas from the Humanoid Robots Lab at the University of Freiburg!

  • Yea. Merry XMas to you. :-)

    Some things to note:

    - Only one of his eyes is glowing. Think it look better if they were both on, but I guess this was a preference?

    - Sounded like he missed a couple of notes there. Or did he play every one on the sheet?

    - Looks like he's flinching more instead of a regular motion when he tries to move to different notes.

    Anyways nice work. :)

  • @N64Mario Our robot had a small accident so one eye refused to light up. It definitely played all notes on the sheet, but not all contacts with the metal bars are perfect.
