A Low-level Embedded Service Architecture for Rapid DIY Design of Real-time Musical Instruments
نویسندگان
چکیده
An on-the-fly reconfigurable low-level embedded service architecture is presented as a means to improve scalability, improve conceptual comprehensibility, reduce human error and reduce development time when designing new sensor-based electronic musical instruments with real-time responsiveness. The implementation of the concept in a project called micro-OSC is described. Other sensor interfacing products are evaluated in the context of DIY prototyping of musical instruments. The capabilities of the micro-OSC platform are demonstrated through a set of examples including resistive sensing, mixed digital-analog systems, many-channel sensor interfaces and time-based measurement methods.

The Closed-Loop Robotic Glockenspiel: Improving Musical Robots Using Embedded Musical Information Retrieval
Musical robots provide artists and musicians with the ability to realise complex new musical ideas in real acoustic space. However, most musical robots are created with openloop control systems, many of which require time consuming calibration and do not reach the level of reliability of other electronic musical instruments such as synthesizers. This paper outlines the construction of a new rob...
متن کاملHSP: A Simple and Effective Open-Source Platform for Implementing Haptic Musical Instruments
When we asked a colleague of ours why people do not make more haptic musical instruments, he replied that he thought they were “too hard to program and too expensive.” We decided to solve these perceived problems by introducing HSP, a simple platform for implementing haptic musical instruments. HSP obviates the need for employing low-level embedded control software because the haptic device is ...

In this paper, we consider the typical project situation of the enterprise STAGO INSTRUMENTS, an international leader developing a product line of blood analysers. In a highly competitive environment, managing the variability in their product lines would be worthwhile. While the variability concerns are mainly addressed in design and implementation phases, our contribution in this paper is to e...
متن کاملRapid Creation and Publication of Digital Musical Instruments
We describe research enabling the rapid creation of digital musical instruments and their publication to the Internet. This research comprises both high-level abstractions for making continuous mappings between audio, interactive, and graphical elements, as well as a centralized database for storing and accessing instruments. Published instruments run in most devices capable of running a modern...
