MoPH: a media performance system with a multi-touch interface

Published:17 November 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

This paper introduces a multi-media performance system called "MoPH" that allows the user to enjoy playing graphics and sounds using an iPad. The computer graphics and sounds are generated based on the movement of "objects" that are subject to physical laws. Users of MoPH define and interact with the object using the multi-touch functions and acceleration sensors of an iPad controlled via WiFi. MoPH provides its users with an intuitive controller that can operate a variety of graphics and sounds. Through demonstrations and experiments, the interface was shown to be easily understood by users.
