Virtual-Pyano

Current capabilities:

As of January 18, 2018, the program tracks the 1-dimensional motion of the index finger (on either hand) and maps the x-position to a note in the C major pentatonic scale.

To do:

1. Add functionality for all fingers across both hands. [Done! ✅ January 23, 2018]
2. Make a better way of programming in the piano. [Done! ✅ January 23, 2018]
3. Add a y-component so that if y>threshold, a note is not being pressed. [Done! ✅ January 19, 2018]
4. Factor in the velocity of the finger such that velocity is proportional to volume (also means I have to program a volume variable rip)
5. Integrate the tech with a Raspberry-Pi to create a handheld, virtual midi controller.
