Abstract

We present in this paper a complete gestural interface built to support music pedagogy. The development of this prototype concerned both hardware and software components: a small wireless sensor interface including accelerometers and gyroscopes, and an analysis system enabling gesture following and recognition. A first set of experiments was conducted with teenagers in a music theory class. The preliminary results were encouraging concerning the suitability of these developments in music education.
