  • Abstract
    This paper outlines some of the design details of creating an automated Pan Flute player targeting the Solomon Island´s Pan Flute in the Pacific Region. Hence, the system functionality will be discussed first through a block diagram. Then the design will be further elaborated through discussion of the hardware assembly and different system modules. Thereafter, the results with overview of the system implementation will be presented. Finally, implications of the automated pan flute player on the society and future improvements will be discussed.
