Arduino Theremin

***Updated on May 24th 2012***

A fun project to build a theremin with an Arduino-based system. My ultimate goal is to build it into a standalone PCB with an independent ATMega at the control. The source code is stored in the arduino-source directory and schematics are in the Eagle file format in the schematics directory.

After some work, I have found the original 4.11 MHz schematic to be sound but the source code had a lot of room for improvement. I am working on updates and they will be posted soon.

The original Arduino source code and oscillator schematics are based on:

Academy of Media Arts Cologne - Theremin as a Capacitive Sensing Device

Additionally, I am looking at using a low-pass filter and DDS technique based on:

Academy of Media Arts Cologne - Arduino DDS Sinewave Generator

I have updated the source code and the schematics. The latest and greatest are on the GitHub repository. The schematic is sound, however, I wouldn't go and have the PCB created just yet for the…Continue
