About Zoybar

Zoybar For Developers

Zoybar is an open R&D Lab for academic, hobbyist, and commercial developers to easily create music instruments and applications. Zoybar`s unique open R&D model provides access to both hardware and production files for further customizations and development by the end users themselves.

The Zoybar components provide research and development tools as a sustainable, playable prototype platform. The same modular parts can be assembled as different instruments, can be change during the performance and also be mounted with numerous special effects, just by adding and changing their position across the profile grooves. The results are interchangeable mashup instruments that enable the musicians to play and manipulate the sound simultaneously and directly from the instrument.

Home made mashup instruments have been growing rapidly under the radar for the last couple of years by 'professional amateurs'. Some of these creations can be seen at our video gallery. Until now duplicating hardware innovation was a fragmented process. You needed to start over every time. Zoybar.net is the social network that supports the growing community of its users. Sharing ideas and creating in a co-creation environment brings a new era in the music instruments evolution.

	Zoybar`s approach considers every user as a potential unique developer creating a "Decentralized R&D Lab" that grows rapidly in different directions. We believe that there will always be more smart people outside any company than within their restricted and limited conventional labs. This unique relationship between Zoybar and its users provide support and incentives for actual needs rather than dictating unwanted products. As an independent developer you can use the Zoybar hardware platform to integrate your application and become relevant to the whole Zoybar community. You can submit your projects as a group administrator and interact with your own forum, members, and rich media content platform for free. With Zoybar, you don't need to be a huge corporation to develop or promote your special effects application. We've done most of the heavy lifting, and your application can be easily attached to the Zoybar platform, just by adding and changing its position across the profile grooves with common bolts and screws. We believe that only open decentralized approach can provide tools for the different needs and abilities of these scattered vast users. We provide physical and virtual platforms as creation tools for developing new music instruments. The end instruments are in the users hands, making each user a unique developer that can share ideas, solutions and even sell their own applications and instruments to other users of the community. Zoybar was designed (by the designer Ziv Bar Ilan) as an open platform that could be upgraded and improved by its users in a decentralized R&D environment. As part of the design and production process, the Zoybar Hardware is manufactured only by demand, with no over production and minimum waste. Our decentralized production process and the modular components system were designed to accommodate flexible productions scales with variety of solutions.
