Abstract

A virtual reality musical system is disclosed including a glove assembly (10) having at least one signal actuator (38) positioned in a first orientation; at least one transmitter (46) mounted to the glove assembly (10) and electrically connected to at least one signal-generating switch (44a and 44b) operatively engaged to the at least one signal actuator (38), wherein the at least one signal-actuator moves from said first orientation to a second orientation; the at least one transmitter and the at least one signal generating switch electrically connected to a power source; a receiving assembly (52) having at least one receiver to receive a signal generated by the at least one transmitter; and a sound generator to convert the electronic signal to a musical tone, electrically connected to the receiver.
