Without instruments, humans can create music with eye movement

If the face and eyes help people to understand each other in communication, now it also brings another interesting thing: creating music without using instruments.

Face and eye recognition software.

Eye Conductor is software that can detect eye movement to create interesting tracks . This is a product of inventor Andreas Refsgaard and colleagues from interactive design institute Copenhagen, Denmark. The purpose of the software is to provide an optional musical instrument store for people with disabilities.

The idea of ​​writing software came to Refsgaard when he looked after a kid with muscular atrophy. Refsgaard found that the baby is difficult to express creativity if he still has on his disability. The strong impulse and the idea of ​​Eye Conductor has been born ever since.

According to New Scientist, Eye Conductor system uses an eye movement monitor via webcam.Eye movements will be converted into signals that control musical notes positions, corresponding to each emulator playing instrument. Currently, Eye Conductor is assisting in simulating some instruments such as piano, violin, synth bass or beat from drum. " I want to create a solution that requires practical exercises similar to a traditional musical instrument ," Refsgaard said.

The software converts eye movements into musical notes.

It's interesting if you can frown and create an octave, known as "the fundamental magic of music". Or you can use the mouth to create reverb sound effects.

Face expressions or eye movements can be easily adjusted according to each individual's ability. However, Refsgaard admits that mastering this type of music will be difficult in the beginning compared to using hands.

Refsgaard is hoping to soon develop an Eye Conductor version on the web to provide to everyone in the world.

Before Refsgaard, scientist Aldo Faisal came from University. The London Royal Family has impressed the robotic arm model to allow disabled people to "mix" music directly with their eyes through a special system. The product has brought inspiration and creative experiences for those who are not lucky in life.
