There is not much to say about project three. It was just a continuation of project 2. I and my fellow EE attempted many times to construct an amplification circuit, it however never worked. We, in the end, resorted to buying a prefabricated amplifier and patching it into our project. To finalize what we had for our second revision, I salvaged a piece of wood from our first bird house and used it as a substrate to witch to mount all of the electrical components including: the arduino; the amplifier; and 2 battery packs , one for the arduino and one for the amplifier. The artists then took over and housed this in a new more organic looking casing.
The new product was received well by the class, however, problems still persist. The sound still isn't quite right and the interaction detection is as yet unrefined. We, as a group, plan to work on refining the unit further, increasing its functionality and aesthetic attraction for use as a public art piece in schools and parks.
