Researchers Develop T-Shirt That Translates Air Guitar Into PC Music
Canberra, Australia - Researchers in Australia have developed a T-shirt with built-in motion sensors that can translate air guitar playing into actual notes played back by a computer, the Associated Press reported.
A team from the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization that included researchers in computing, chemistry, electronics, music composition and textile manufacture developed the "wearable instrument shirt."
"It's an easy-to-use, virtual instrument that allows real-time music making even by players without significant musical or computing skills," Richard Helmer, the engineer who leads the research team, told AP.
