It takes great effort by players of a bowed string musical instrument to
manipulate proper bow-to-string pressure that directly affects the
quality of the sound generated. This invention is a training device that
provides bow-to-string pressure reading as feedback to players. The
device consists of a rib cage, a base unit, and a liquid crystal display
unit. The rib cage emulates strings and transfers bow pressure to the
base unit. The main components of the base unit include a pressure sensor
and microcontroller circuit board. The liquid crystal display unit
displays reading sent by the microcontroller board.
