One of the many Samsung C-Lab projects that will be on display at CES 2022 is ZamStar, a platform for learning music with a guitar and an app. This platform is engineered to make learning and collaborating easier, especially with the beginner-friendly ZamString guitar with LED lights that sync with the songs that are being learned.
To make the experience of learning a new instrument highly shareable, ZamStar lets users play parts on the guitar, then add sound effects and share their creations with other users worldwide. In this way, it's also possible for users to assemble a band of sorts, where other users can layer sounds to create richer sounding pieces.
This beginner-friendly platform takes cues from popular social platforms with its emphasis on collaboration and shareability.
