| - | The Symbiotic Synth uses as the only power source the body temperature and drives with that an electric oscillator. The difference of the body to the environment temperature can generates some tiny little bits of electric power - the so called [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect|Seebeck Effect]]. With some tricks and high tech in form of the Small Energy Harvesting Chip: [[https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/LTC3108.pdf|LTC 3108]] one can convert that small amount of energy into some decent voltage and an [[https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/waveforms/astable.html|astable multivibrator]] circuit can be powered with that. It will oscillate in a audible range depending on the setting of the potentiometer. And because the headphone are actually part of the oscillation circuit one can listen to the sound, too.\\ | + | The Symbiotic Synth uses as the only power source the body temperature and drives with that an electric oscillator.

| In attaching some sensors, like: light, pressure, skin and temperature depending resistors to the circuit one can have variations of the sound based on the human body and its functions. The generated sound will change depending on breath, heart beat, skin resistance and body temperature.\\ | In attaching some sensors, like: light, pressure, skin and temperature depending resistors to the circuit one can have variations of the sound based on the human body and its functions.
