1.Innovation & Technology

TemPolor Melo-D is a generative-AI smart guitar offering three modes:

(1)Solo Mode: turns the user’s favorite songs into complete fingerstyle melodies via generative AI; with a game-like on-device UI and LED fret indicators, you can play right away.

(2)Sing-along Mode: built-in AI vocal guide helps users find pitch and timing more easily.

(3)AI Creation Mode: TemPolor’s AI music model composes original songs based on the user’s mood description and style preference.

2. Experience & Playability

For beginners and enthusiasts alike, Melo-D is easy to pick up. A foldable display and LED indicators on the neck guide the player: press chord keys with the left hand and the picker with the right to output chords or melodies. Our most creative design arpeggio Pad emulates the feel of six guitar strings; multiple built-in tones and an auto drum machine expand the fun. The 7↔21-key layout switches on demand, growing with users from entry to advanced.

3. Proof, Safety & Roadmap

Engineered for audio fidelity and reliability, Melo-D is on track to obtain Hi-Res Audio certification by late September; wireless and battery compliance are part of the launch checklist. After the ChinaJoy 2025 public debut with hands-on trials and user-feedback collection, its core algorithms and interaction design are protected by patents and software copyrights. With OTA updates and ecosystem partnerships, Melo-D will keep getting better after purchase.
