A close relative started to get trouble to switch on the radio. She used the radio for years. However, due to getting older, it became more and more difficult to operate it.
When I heard this, I thought “Let’s buy an easier to use radio for her birthday”. After some searching, I could not find a proper one. So, I decided to build a Radio – Music Player by myself.
She was happy with the first prototype. It was just a wooden box, some electronics and software. More importantly, it is intuitive to operate.
I showed the prototype to friends. To my surprise, everyone has relatives which would like such a Music Player.
As an engineer, to make a product what is so helpful, gave me a lot of satisfaction.
That gave me the energy to develop a Oradio Music Player, which can be built by many other.
All this work is as a hobby project, so on non-profit base. The most important is, to bring the pleasure of music to as many people as possible.
Hope you will enjoy building and sharing the Oradio.
Let me know your questions, remarks and improvements.
