Open.Theremin.CC Proto

Here a first preview of the prototype for a new version of the Open.Theremin I am currently working on. I migrated the whole design to KiCad, the open source PCB design software. I tested many requested and suggested features in the new design. The basic design works, now I need to clean up some errors and refine the software. The automatic calibration of the antennas works already quite well and I like the new design with 4 potentiometers.

Still a lot of wires and things to test. Stay tuned.

 

If you want to have a closer look, the files for the protoype are now on GitHub.
