'air guitar move' pick and app for iPhone


'air guitar move' turns an iPhone into a guitar, playable by simply air-strumming with the plastic pick,
while the phone itself functions as fretboard. san francisco-based established electronics designers ronald mannak
and colin karpfinger are seeking kickstarter funding for the device, whose hardware is currently being certified by apple.

'air guitar move' relies foremost on a motion sensing guitar pick, connected via the 30-pin dock on iPhone or iPod touch.
the free 'air guitar move' app features two games: 'free play'-- in which users can improvise or play along to songs
by fingering chords on the iPhone while strumming the pick-- and 'arcade', a 'guitar hero'-like game that requires players
to simply strum in time, and place the correct number of fingers onto the iPhone.

the picks themselves will be produced in a black plastic and a limited edition serialized red anodized aluminum version.



a limited edition, the red anoidized aluminum picks each feature a serial number
