Facial Control For Electric Guitar

Facial Control For Electric Guitar could very well be the next big thing in guitar playing technology. “This is a project in which I mapped the output of a real-time face-tracker onto the parameters of an audio effects processor. The result: a face-position sensitive input mode to the effects processor - the ultimate headbanger-guitar-player’s interface.” Now, all Davis Merrill needs to incorporate into the system is controllers that recognise when the guitarist bites their tongue, pout, close their eyes and roll their head from side to side while facing the ceiling, rolling their eyes back till all you can see are the whites and all the other things the guitar gods do when soloing! Imagine the soundscapes and textures that could be created..I think I’d pick up my guitar and learn to play again! [via]
