چکیده

Musical instruments keep hobbyist musicians highly engaged for years.

This will result in interfaces that users find more engaging in the long term. Such interfaces would be useful in many applications, and would be particularly useful in applications based on long-term goals, such as education, productivity, rehabilitation, or physical fitness.
