In this paper, the task of synthesizing virtual music without adopting any
musical instruments has been accomplished by detecting the changes in hand position with
the help of computer vision techniques. The melody of one octave has been studied taking
the possible diversities in the number of fingers into consideration. Vocalizing proper notes
corresponding to the current hand position has been carried out through computerized
interpretation of finger motions on a hand image recorded by a video camera. Finger
positions have been determined by preprocessing the input hand image. Feature vector
has been composed of the distances from hand’s center of gravity to finger tips. As a result,
the feasibility of real-time computerized synthesis of virtual music has been demonstrated
by evaluating the finger motions without the need for heavy musical instruments such as
piano.
