Sound reactive wearable robotics project inspired by personal experience with misophonia. The piece battles sound with sound both from speakers and vibration motors which are modified to look like hives (allergic reaction). Electronics: electret mic sensor, 8x8 led matrix, microcontroller and motorshield, 8 mini motors with 3d printed shaft attachments offset for vibration (switch operated), modified overear headphones play multiple tones through piezo buzzers (switch operated). Headpiece housing: pepakura, bondo, fiberglass resin, enamel spray paint.
