About Ovo Melody Muusikaline mänguasi

Ovo Melody on muusikaline mänguasi, mis on mõeldud igas vanuses mängijatele, kellel on vähe või üldse mitte muusikalisi teadmisi. Rajale asetatakse sõlmed ning magnetandurit sisaldav pall veereb allapoole ja loeb iga sõlme magneti tugevust, et tuvastada muusikaline helilaad. Andmed saadetakse seejärel Bluetoothi kaudu baasjaama, mis esitab heli. Baasjaam mahutab erinevaid instrumente, nii et alumise osa vahetamisega saab valida trompeti, klaveri või kitarri. Iga komponent ja juhendkaardid on tähistatud punktkirjaga, nii et ka nägemispuudega inimesed saavad taasluua tuntud meloodiaid või komponeerida uusi.
