I don't think stopped horn would be that difficult. Create a ballistics gel hand (akin to what they do all the time on Mythbusters) and then program it so that it is actuated at a particular angle at a particular time. -William -----Original Message----- From: Jay Anderson <[email protected]> To: The Horn List <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, Jul 11, 2010 12:20 am Subject: Re: [Hornlist] About those brass playing robots...

A robot playing stopped horn seems doable. It doesn't seem much more difficult than regular horn playing mechanically. Natural horn might be somewhat more difficult though. I do wonder how their synthetic lips work though. Does anyone know what they're made of and how they work? -----Jay _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/valkhorn%40aol.com _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/kicklighgter%40yahoo.com _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
