Chapter 3: Building a LEGO Guitar

Entertainment is an important aspect of our lives and well-being. One of the great hobbies, interests, and careers is music. As technology continues to advance in our lives, we see more technology being used to create musical, music experiences, concerts, and so on.

This chapter will be combining robotics and music by using the LEGO SPIKE Prime kit to make a guitar that is playable and codable to our unique needs.

The gaming industry was impacted by the awesomeness of Guitar Hero and the likes of many other music games; let's create our own instrument that will allow you to jam to your favorite song.

Here is what your guitar will look like by the end of this chapter:
