Abstract:
This paper proposes an EEG-based musical instrument system, MindPlay, that provides ensemble experience in a new way. MindPlay is a system that produces sound by controlling a melodic percussion instrument based on an user’s brainwave data monitored by a EEG device in real time. This aims to provide an user with aesthetic experience and satisfaction of ensemble with professional musicians even if they do not have the knowledge and skills of traditional instruments.
