Abstract

L’invention concerne une détection d’une interaction d’un utilisateur avec un dispositif apte à générer un signal de musique simulant le jeu d’un instrument de musique virtuel du type à cordes pincées par un médiator. Le dispositif (SM) comportant un écran tactile (ECR) pour :- afficher sur l’écran un manche de l’instrument de musique comportant une succession de cordes virtuelles selon un premier axe (X) et une succession de frettes virtuelles selon un deuxième axe (Y) perpendiculaire au premier axe,- détecter des coordonnées d’appui sur l’écran, selon les deux axes, par au moins un doigt d’une première main (M1) d’un utilisateur, et- générer un signal de musique fonction des coordonnées de l’appui et qui dépend ainsi, d’une part de la corde virtuelle jouée, et d’autre part d’une case de frette virtuelle, recevant l’appui.On prévoit en outre un équipement secondaire (ME), connecté au dispositif (SM), et comportant un capteur de mouvement de la deuxième main de l’utilisateur simulant un pincement de corde de l’instrument virtuel par un médiator. La détection d’un mouvement de la deuxième main (M2) par le capteur de l’équipement secondaire provoque alors la génération du signal de musique. Figure de l’abrégé : Figure 2The invention relates to detection of an interaction of a user with a device capable of generating a music signal simulating the playing of a virtual musical instrument of the type with strings plucked by a pick. The device (SM) comprising a touch screen (ECR) for:- displaying on the screen a neck of the musical instrument comprising a succession of virtual strings along a first axis (X) and a succession of virtual frets along a second axis (Y) perpendicular to the first axis,- detecting contact coordinates on the screen, along the two axes, by at least one finger of a first hand (M1) of a user, and- generating a music according to the coordinates of the support and which thus depends, on the one hand on the virtual string played, and on the other hand on a virtual fret box, receiving the support. A secondary equipment is also provided (ME ), connected to the device (SM), and comprising a motion sensor of the user's second hand simulating a string plucking of the virtual instrument by a pick. The detection of a movement of the second hand (M2) by the sensor of the secondary equipment then causes the generation of the music signal. Abstract Figure: Figure 2
