STRINGED MUSICAL INSTRUMENT PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A real time performance pressure feedback system for a stringed instrument includes a pressure sensor, a desired pressure input device, a feedback device, and a controller. The pressure sensor is configured to be fixedly and removably attached to the stringed instrument on a pressure surface, and to generate a pressure signal indicative of a pressure being applied to the pressure surface. The desired pressure user input device is configured to receive a desired pressure input and to generate a desired pressure signal indicative of the desired pressure input. The feedback device is configured to generate feedback to a performer at least in part in response to a performance feedback signal. The controller is communicatively connected to the pressure sensor, the desired pressure user input, and the feedback device, and is configured to generate the performance feedback signal at least in part in response to the pressure signal.

1. A real time performance pressure feedback system for a stringed instrument, comprising:
a pressure sensor configured to be fixedly and removably attached to the stringed instrument on a pressure surface, the pressure surface including at least one of a chin rest, a neck front, a neck back, and a bow, and configured to generate a pressure signal indicative of a pressure being applied to the pressure surface; a desired pressure input device configured to receive a desired pressure input and configured to generate a desired pressure signal indicative of the desired pressure input; a feedback device configured to generate visual or audio pressure feedback to a performer playing the stringed instrument at least in part in response to a performance feedback signal, and a controller communicatively connected to the pressure sensor, the desired pressure user input, and the feedback device, and configured to generate the performance feedback signal at least in part in response to the pressure signal.
