Abstract: An electric instrument music control device is provided having at least two multi-axis position sensors. One sensor is a reference multi-axis position sensor retained in a fixed position the reference multi-axis position sensor having at least one axis held in a fixed position. Another sensor is a moveable multi-axis position sensor rotatable about at least one axis corresponding to the at least one axis of the reference multi-axis position sensor, wherein the moveable multi-axis position sensor is in communication with the reference multi-axis position sensor. The device may include a processor that processes the differentiation between the angular position of the at least one axis of the reference multi-axis position sensor and the at least one axis of the moveable multi-axis position sensor, wherein the angular differentiation correlates to a music effect of an electric instrument.

Abstract: An audio/visual system (e.g., such as an entertainment console or other computing device) plays a base audio track, such as a portion of a pre-recorded song or notes from one or more instruments. Using a depth camera or other sensor, the system automatically detects that a user (or a portion of the user) enters a first collision volume of a plurality of collision volumes. Each collision volume of the plurality of collision volumes is associated with a different audio stem. In one example, an audio stem is a sound from a subset of instruments playing a song, a portion of a vocal track for a song, or notes from one or more instruments. In response to automatically detecting that the user (or a portion of the user) entered the first collision volume, the appropriate audio stem associated with the first collision volume is added to the base audio track or removed from the base audio track.

Abstract: An end-user system (10) for transforming real-time streams of content into an output presentation includes a user interface (30) that allows a user to interact with the streams. The user interface (30) includes sensors (32a-f) that monitor an interaction area (36) to detect movements and/or sounds made by a user. The sensors (32a-f) are distributed among the interaction area (36) such that the user interface (30) can determine a three-dimensional location within the interaction area (36) where the detected movement or sound occurred. Different streams of content can be activated in a presentation based on the type of movement or sound detected, as well as the determined location. The present invention allows a user to interact with and adapt the output presentation according to his/her own preferences, instead of merely being a spectator.
