Application of new Fiber and Malleable Materials for Agile Development of Augmented Instruments and Controllers
The paper introduces new fiber and malleable materials, including piezoresistive fabric and conductive heat-shrink tubing, and shows techniques and examples of how they may be used for rapid prototyping and agile development of musical instrument controllers. New implementations of well-known designs are covered as well as enhancements of existing controllers. Finally, two new controllers are i...
متن کاملIntegration of Touch Pressure and Position Sensing with Speaker Diaphragms
Speaker cones and other driver diaphragms are usually too fragile to be good sites for touch interaction. This can be solved by employing new, lightweight piezoresistive e-textiles with flat, rectangular, stiff surfaces used in full-range drivers from HiWave. Good low-frequency performance of piezoresistive fabric has an advantage over piezoelectric sensing for this situation. Applications of t...
متن کاملThe Open University ’ s repository of research publications and other research outputs TOUCHtr 4 ck : democratic collaborative music
When electronic musicians compose collaboratively, they typically use their own single-user musical controllers. It may, therefore, be useful to develop novel controllers that support collaborative workflows and democratic principles. After describing the design principles for developing such controllers, we present TOUCHtr4ck, a prototype multitouch system designed to facilitate such democrati...
متن کاملThe Squeezables: Toward an Expressive and Interdependent Multi-player Musical Instrument
The Squeezables is a computer music instrument that allows a group of players to perform and improvise musical compositions by using a set of squeezing and pulling gestures. The instrument, comprised of six squeezable and retractable gel balls mounted on a small podium, addresses a number of hardware and software challenges in electronic music interface design. It is designed to provide an alte...
متن کاملDesign of Robust Finite-Time Nonlinear Controllers for a 6-DOF Autonomous Underwater Vehicle for Path Tracking Objective
In this paper, kinematic and dynamic equations of a 6-DOF (Degrees Of Freedom) autonomous underwater vehicle (6-DOF AUV) are introduced and described completely. By developing the nonsingular terminal sliding mode control method, three separate groups of control inputs are proposed for the autonomous underwater vehicle subjected to uncertainties including parametric uncertainties, unmodeled dyn...
