Touching Notes: A Gesture-Based Game for Teaching Music to Children (04b Atto di convegno in volume)

Renzi Manuela, VASSOS STAVROS, CATARCI Tiziana, KIMANI STEPHEN KAMAU

In this work we present some findings on how gesturebased interfaces can stimulate and motivate children into learning the basics of music notation. We report on a serious game we developed that relies on a hand detection interface using motion-sensing camera technology. Our initial experiments indicate the accuracy, effectiveness, and user acceptance of the gesture-based interface among children, thereby validating the idea that such interfaces can be used to facilitate the teaching of music concepts.
