The Otamatone (オタマトーン) is an electronic musical instrument synthesizer. It requires two hands to play: while one hand holds and squeezes the "head", the other hand controls the pitch of the tune by placing the finger on a ribbon controller on the stem; a higher position on the stem creates a lower sound. The sound made by this instrument can be compared to the sound of a theremin,[4] synthesizer, or jinghu.--Wikepedia.
