The MYO armband from Thalmic Labs is a complete and wireless motion and muscle sensing platform. This paper evaluates the armband’s sensors and its potential for NIME applications. This is followed by a presentation of the ...

The paper presents a conceptual overview of how optical infrared marker based motion capture systems (IrMoCap) can be used in musical interaction. First we present a review of related work of using IrMoCap for musical ...

This paper presents an experiment on sound tracing, meaning an experiment on how people relate motion to sound. 38 participants were presented with 18 short sounds, and instructed to move their hands in the air while acting ...

The paper presents research about implementing a full body inertial motion capture system, the Xsens MVN suit, for musical interaction. Three di erent approaches for streaming real time and prerecorded motion capture data ...

In this paper we present the Dance Jockey System, a system developed for using a full body inertial motion capture suit (Xsens MVN) in music/dance performances. We present different strategies for extracting relevant ...

The paper presents the interactive music system SoloJam, which allows a group of participants with little or no musical training to effectively play together in a ``band-like'' setting. It allows the participants to take ...

The paper presents an analysis of the quality of motion data from an iPod Touch (4th gen.). Acceleration and orientation data derived from internal sensors of an iPod is compared to data from a high end optical infrared ...

In our own and other research on music-related actions, findings suggest that perceived action and sound are broken down into a series of chunks in people’s minds when they perceive or imagine music. Chunks are here ...

The paper presents Nymophone2, an acoustic instrument with a complex relationship between performance actions and emergent sound. A method for describing the multidimensional control actions needed to play the instrument ...

The purpose of this Short-Term Scientific Mission has been to investigate the use of the Sound Description Interchange Format (SDIF) as a container format for Gesture Description Interchange Format (GDIF) recordings. Much ...
