Ovo Melody se yon jwèt mizikal ki fèt pou jwè nenpòt laj ki gen ti kras oswa ki pa gen okenn konesans mizikal. Nòd yo mete sou ray, epi yon boul ki gen yon detektè mayetik woule desann pou li fòs chak eman nòd la pou idantifye gam mizikal la. Apre sa, done yo voye pa Bluetooth bay yon estasyon debaz, ki jwe son an. Baz la kenbe diferan enstriman, kidonk yo ka chwazi twonpèt, pyano oswa gita lè yo chanje pati anba a. Nòtasyon Braille make chak eleman ansanm ak kat enstriksyon yo, konsa moun ki gen andikap vizyèl yo tou ka rekreye melodi yo konnen oswa konpoze nouvo.
