Tongue 'n' Groove (2002)

Abstract
Here we propose a novel musical controller which acquires imaging data of the tongue with a two-dimensional medical ultrasound scanner. A computer vision algorithm extracts from the image a discrete tongue shape to control, in realtime, a musical synthesizer and musical effects. We evaluate the mapping space between tongue shape and controller parameters and its expressive characteristics.
