A quick run around the internet yielded that other people are working along similar designs.

Seems hackday has some good insights as usual

Yes some parallel efforts will be good. This project may be more mechanically simpler than other projects.

Here are additional links, this is a 2010 paper from MIT and BU, there is work ongoing based around this design: https://web.mit.edu/2.75/projects/DMD_2010_Al_Husseini.pdf

Here's a project last year from Rice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t2t8d8xtD0&feature=youtu.be

The above two use bag-valves.

Hi all,

Here's something I'm working on, through JOGL: https://app.jogl.io/project/151 . I'm specifically making an Android app to provide the chart display. If there's interest, I could adapt that and make it available for other hardware configurations.

My contact info is on my Github page.
