A real-time virtual piano based on gesture capture data

Abstract

Human-computer interaction (HCI) continues to be a significant field of computer industry. Researchers are looking for the next generation human-computer interaction which is more natural and more efficient. As a new device of high precision real-time, Leap Motion could track the movement of hands and fingers, which attracts many researchers attention. In this paper, a new entertainment application C virtual piano C is implemented combined with Unity which is one of the famous game engines, and Leap Motion. The virtual piano in this paper allow users play piano in real-time by moving theirs hands above the Leap Motion controller. Finally, the practice shows that this virtual piano application has a good performance.
