INFO 5410 Design Project 3
Human-Musician Interaction.
What We Do
Solo music improvisation is no simple task! Collective improvisation is even harder! Our team seeks to analyze and design novel ways in which robots can facilitate the non-verbal communication that musical improvisation so heavily depends on.

Design Process/Early Research
Collaborative Drawing Task
A clip of the collaborative task we administered in order to further develop our robot design.
Interaction Flow Chart
Potential actions by our robot were mapped into a flow chart.
Crowdsourcing user reactions/data
Using crowdsourcing/Amazon Mechanical Turk, we determined the effectiveness of our current robot design in communicating with human partners and further improved that design using this feedback.
Human-Musician Interaction Task & Poster
Take a look and enjoy!
Final Robot Design
-Rotating and articulated arms
-Lantern body
-LEDs in the body
Combo Observation w/ Robot
Our Poster
We consolidated our findings and observations into a single, presentable medium.
