Touch Wall/Music Game

Music game is an interactive installation based on our multi-touch wall project. People generate music by hitting music instruments icons with rubber balls. As well they control concert lighting equipment via MIDI.

This solution is based on their GPU-accelerated computer vision technology called ACV. It allows to process a 4096x4096 px frame in just 5 ms (200 fps) utilizing a standard nVidia 9800 GT card. They use high-speed Fire-Wire cameras to feed their tracker at such a high data speed.

I really like the idea behind this installation.  It is an encouraging way for people to interact with each other in a new fun competitive way.  It allows for different music to be made each time people play the multi-touch wall.

  1. This would be great at a party (like in the video). I think that the social aspect of this approach taps into the same niche as the Nintendo Wii. A simple UI and cool user feedback.
