My Project

Teaching the students how to measure, visual with sound by combining lighting with music can create a dynamic atmosphere. Consider using sound-activated LED strips that sync with music beats for an immersive experience.

Combining sound and lights, will result in an engaging project.

Consider using microcontroller CO-Z LED Stage Lights and MOTU M2 2x2 USB-C Audio Interface synchronizing lights and sound effects. Plan the interactions between sound and lights, and program them accordingly for a cohesive experience.

Additionally, incorporating audiovisual elements in presentations or lesson can cater to different learning styles and improve overall comprehension.
