Go to Post My point is that there seems to be a trend in FIRST in which people are saying "who cares about the robots, let's inspire the students." What I'm saying is, it's the robots that inspire the students. - Chris Hibner [more]

Robot Tyco Drummer?

I recently had a challenge proposed by a friend in our school's tyco drumming club: a tyco robot! Any ideas or examples?
I was intrigued by how controlled and quick the arms (assuming it was a slightly humanoid robot) would have to be, and the mechanism for holding the sticks would be complicated as well. It would have to be able to hold the sticks somewhat loosely I think in order to drum properly.
As for programming, I think it would be cool to just be able to input drum beats and have it play them!
