Step into the Conductor’s Role
Ever wondered what it’s like to lead an orchestra? Semi-Conductor gives you a chance to experience conducting through an interactive web experiment. Using your webcam, the app tracks your gestures and turns them into musical cues, letting a virtual ensemble perform in response to your movements.
How motion becomes music
The system analyzes the motions you make in front of your camera and maps those gestures to instructions for the AI-driven orchestra. As you move, the ensemble reacts in real time, producing a piece that follows the detected directions.
Gesture controls explained
- Move your arms left or right to switch which instrument groups are active, cycling the ensemble’s timbre.
- Swing your arms upward or downward to raise or lower the overall loudness.
- Make a broad arm motion to initiate the performance — a deliberate sweep gets the music started.
Join the experiment and have fun
By participating you’re not only enjoying a playful musical experience but also helping the developers collect data to improve gesture recognition and AI behavior. It’s an easy, entertaining way to contribute to research while exploring a new form of musical interaction.
