NaadLabs

NaadLabs is where ancient sound finds new limbs. We design robotic extensions for traditional musical instruments, beginning with the Indian sitar. Our innovations allow musicians to expand their expressive range without altering their natural playing style — giving them what feels like a third hand, or a new limb of sound. Founded by musician, mathematician, and roboticist Yoav Fekete, NaadLabs lives at the intersection of tradition, technology, and transformation. Our work is inspired by sacred sound philosophies (Naad Yoga), and built with cutting-edge robotics and mechatronics. Whether on stage, in the lab, or in the studio, our mission is simple: To give timeless music new possibilities.
