Swoop is a new and accessible way of learning and creating music. Using hand movement, it enables the user to create, feel and learn music both individually and in group settings. Swoop aids in helping to bridge the gap between traditional and digital music. It functions using three axes of movement: - X Axis (Octave Displacement): Moving the hand left and right shifts the octave, mimicking guitar or piano movements. The accompanying parameter app controls the number of octaves. - Y Axis (Note Pitch): Moving hands left and right transitions between seven notes, with the left hand for lower and the right for higher notes, mimicking a traditional music stave. - Z Axis (Volume Variation): Moving hands forward and back adjusts volume, teaching sound intensity through pressure. The product includes two gloves with embedded haptic motors These motors provide haptic feedback relative to the note and volume intensity and aid gesture recognition software in distinguishing the user's hand from the background. This all works in tandem with a companion app allowing the user to change parameters based on their experience.
