This is an ambitious project for Nagendra who wanted to design an acoustic Tanpura in the shape of a Yarl (Harp instrument) and develop a set of Robotic fingers to pluck the strings. He is hoping that this will produce natural sound with a high quality of sound from the specially crafted acoustic chamber that will match the quality of a real traditional Tanpura.
Further he wants to perfect the design of the Robotic fingers and users will be able to retrofit this Robotic finger on to a traditional Tanpura.
