oko
Oko is a portable sampling device which captures environmental data and converts it to sound.
Using a sensor module with a camera, LiDAR sensor, microphone, and gyroscope, users can edit, sequence, and save samples created from their surroundings
Intuitive Controls and Emphasis on Portability
Users interact with Oko through color-coded physical controls including a circle pad, touch sliders, and scroll wheel. A wrist strap mount emphasizes Oko's pick-up-and-play design language.
Color Coded User Interface
Oko's physical controls are color coded to match with the user interface, allowing users to quickly navigate their sample library, tweak sounds they have sampled, and sequence their samples.
Sample Library:
Instead of a traditional list-based sample library, Oko intelligently sorts the user’s samples into a point cloud based on each sample's similarity to one another.
Sample Editor:
Using the color coded controls, users are able to morph their samples which is reflected in the interface with gradient colors.
Sequencer:
A simple traditional beat sequencer function that is also color coded for more intuitive control.
