Showcase » Beatwear

Beatwear consists of a pair of drum-gloves, used to create and explore music in an untraditional way. Essentially, they represent a new form of music composition.

The gloves generate different percussion sounds (with different effects) depending on which fingers strike the surface, with which velocity it is hit and whether or not the surface is metallic. This is achieved by using sensors that registers pressure, conductivity and the bending of fingers.

Different sets of drums (e.g. electronic, classical, rock, hip hop or drum ‘n’ bass) can be chosen and your beat can be accompanied by different background-rhythm. You can enjoy your self-created music publicly through speakers or privately through head-phones.
