A laser harp is an electronic musical instrument that uses laser beams as virtual strings, enabling sound production through gesture-based interaction. Unlike traditional harps, there are no physical strings— interruption of laser beams with hands or objects triggers MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) signals to produce sound. These instruments combine elements of optical sensing, digital sound synthesis, and performance art, creating an audiovisual experience that is both futuristic and immersive. Laser harps are commonly employed in live concerts, interactive artworks, and technology-integrated exhibits, captivating audiences with their visual display and musical feedback that reacts to the player.
We at Looming Technologies Pvt. Ltd. develop and manufacture bespoke laser harp systems for interactive and professional applications. Our strengths cover the following areas:
The performance of a laser harp is facilitated by the seamless combination of optics, microcontrollers, and MIDI logic:
The development of laser harps will evolve forward with:
Create intense, visible beams that constitute the "strings" of the laser harp. Employed in interactive laser instruments and stage performance laser displays for an eye-catching visual effect.
Detecting hand movements when a laser beam is broken. Critical for gesture-controlled sound systems and touchless musical instruments.
Processing sensor data and transmitting commands to play notes or effects. Typically built with Arduino laser harp controllers or Raspberry Pi music systems.
Direct laser beams into precise positions. Applied in laser light show instruments to improve precision and aesthetics.
Supports lasers, sensors, and electronics in a frame. Applied to portable laser harp systems and stage-friendly instrument configurations.
Assigns musical note, scale, and effect to every laser "string." Can be customized for live music laser shows and interactive events.
Adds LED or projection effects in sync with the music. Produces a concert laser light show immersion.
