Theremin Style Instrument

Theremin has been a quite popular project over the last few years especially after Arduino is risen. Here is one which has been sent to me by Nick Hardeman. This is Theremin Style Instrument based on Arduino. Nick Hardeman writes:
This battery powered electronic musical instrument is a descendant of the theremin and can be played without contact from the musician. This small instrument contains two infrared (IR) sensors, one controlling the note, with the other controlling the octave that is played through the speaker in the front.There are seven possible notes (c-b) and 7 possible octaves of each note. The tone is reflected by one of seven colors that illuminates the center area and highlights a small indicator located on the top panel. The brain of this piece is a boot-loaded ATmega chip.The source code is available, as well as, pictures and a video.
