Quite cool. Music, however, is not a series of on-off keystrokes - how would one use a system such as this to effect the other areas of music, such as dynamics, velocity, etc.?

Cheers,

On an organ it is!

Perhaps you didn't see that it supports 'gestures'.

Ah, yes. As well as plucked string kbds (harpsichord, etc.). Well, I hope we're not viewing the minority of instruments as breakthrough technology, but I suppose one must start somewhere.

Why, yes, I did. So one will replace one set of learned movements with another. Maybe promising, maybe not. I still like the 'projected' kbds, if in fact they can track motion, and therefore combine 'keystroke' with 'velocity' gesture.

Works in progress, but that is what we need.

I haven't done phase-2 research on the projected kbds yet, but I
suspect they're far more limiting, and probably not suitable for
a musical instrument. I suspect there are serious limitations to
the 'chords' one can play, for example . . .
