| Tongue ‘n’ Groove: An Ultrasound based Music Controller (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. | |||||||||||||||||
