Physical interface design for digital musical instruments.

The McGill Digital Orchestra: an ongoing research project to create an orchestra of performers using a variety of digital musical instruments.

Developing systems for gesture control of spatialization, which would allow performers to control spatialization of the sound of their acoustic instruments during performance.

The Viblotar: A digital musical instrument with embedded sound production and intrinsic vibro-tactile feedback.

The T-Box: A second-generation instrument which makes use of ultrasound to detect hand movements in open air. Built for the Digital Orchestra project.

The FM Gloves: A pair of custom designed datagloves using force-sensing resistors (FSRs), a bend sensor, a Sharp GP2D12 infrared distance sensor and an Analog Devices ADXL202 2-axis accelerometer. Built for the Digital Orchestra project.

The AVR-HID: a 6-channel 10-bit (or 8-channel 8-bit) USB analog-to-digital converter.

A simple 1w 5v audio amplifier for battery-powered applications.

Development of hardware for control of a Max/MSP implementation of Karlheinz Stockhausen's Mantra
