The paper reports on the development and activities in the recently established fourMs lab (Music, Mind, Motion, Machines) at the University of Oslo, Norway. As a meeting place for researchers in music and informatics, the ...

In this paper we present a method for studying relationships between features of sound and features of movement. The method has been tested by carrying out an experiment with people moving an object in space along with ...

This paper presents a comparison of different configurations of a wireless sensor system for capturing human motion. The systems consist of sensor elements which wirelessly transfers motion data to a receiver element. The ...

We present a new wireless transceiver board for the CUI32 sensor interface, aimed at creating a solution that is flexible, reliable, and with little power consumption. Communication with the board is based on the ZigFlea ...

In this paper, we demonstrate systems based on Spartan-6 series FPGAs that provide full support for active partial run-time reconfiguration. We will summarize design factors for successfully applying run-time reconfiguration, ...

Synchronisation is an important part of collaborative music systems, and with such systems implemented on mobile devices, the implementation of algorithms for synchronisation without central control becomes increasingly ...

We present Funky Sole Music, a musical interface employing a sole embedded with three force sensitive resistors in combination with a novel algorithm for continuous movement classification. A heuristics-based music engine ...

Links between music and body motion can be studied through experiments called sound-tracing. One of the main challenges in such research is to develop robust analysis techniques that are able to deal with the multidimensional ...

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 ...

In this paper, a new project named Context Switching Reconfigurable Hardware for Communication Systems (COSRECOS) is introduced. The project started autumn 2009 and consists of applying reconfigurable hardware technology ...
