Rude Cats

Clips from toy theatre project, using TAGS hidden in the puppets and an RFID reader in the cottage.  The cats make different comments depending on who approaches.  Lots of fun making puppets and voicing cats.

 
Using Processing to play audio files, triggered via Arduino (with RFID reader) connected through serial port.  The cats have a range of responses for each tag, so the output is randomised.  You can hear the same audio clip being invoked more than once so the sounds overlap.
