What do you get when you add music to your exoskeleton device? Strange music for sure. Great photos.
The GypsyMIDI
is a unique performance instrument for motion-capture midi control,
featuring extensive customization to enable a wide range of musical and
visual applications. Setup and operation is simple, intuitive and
quick.
The suit is modeled on the human skeletal form using rotational sensors placed on the joints. The GypsyMIDI simply plugs into a MIDI interface and arm movements are converted into a real-time stream of MIDI data. The mapping interface eXo-software
allows the user to define how the movements are translated into MIDI
control, including the ability to trigger notes, generate continuous
control commands or even play scales.
Software included with the suit lets the user control any MIDI-enabled program including Cubase, Live, Logic Audio, ProTools, MotionBuilder, Reason, Traktor DJ Studio
and any VST instrument or effect. Real-time control of sliders,
cross-faders, and buttons allows many parameters such as volume, filter
cut-off & resonance to be manipulated instantly.
