Peugeot release a video of a car ‘playing’ piano

Car manufacturer Peugeot have released a video of the first piece of piano music to be performed by a car.

The French automobile brand teamed up with Riopy, a composer and pianist known for his work on Oscar-winning Hollywood hits such as “The Danish Girl” and “The Shape of Water.”

Giant notes from Riopy’s composition were laid down on an off-road test track in Croatia for the shoot.

Laser sensors were fitted to the underside of the car  – then the passage of the vehicle over a note triggers the associated sound of the original score.
