Concert Hands iPhone/iPad Demo Video.flv

This video is a preliminary design for the Concert Hands mobile application, a piano playing assistance and game app for the iPhone and iPad. This innovative app utilizes gaming and learning technology that builds finger control enabling piano playing that can transferred to a real piano.

Once a selected song has been started, note bars fall towards each finger box that is supposed to be pressed. Looping and tempo adjusting can also be applied to each song to make playing easier.

Ten finger boxes light up when pressed indicating a correct stroke. If a user presses the wrong finger box it will not light up. Meanwhile a users fingers are controlling the 3D fingers that are playing the piano keys that would be pressed on a real piano.

When a user shifts to the Simon Says type mode, the game will shift to pattern matching. It will act much like the Simon Says game works and a list of 128 musical instrument tones can be chosen for each song. The game mode starts slowly and gets progressively harder utilizing both hands.

At the end of a round the user's stats for timing, accuracy and fingering are displayed. The application will also integrate Game Center functionality so that users can earn badges and complete achievements relevant to game play.

If a user chooses the normal mode, the note drop bars are eliminated for freestyle playing. This mode also enables the user to independently move the 3D fingers.

Customers can choose from 12 midi songs (song files) that come with the App and will have access to a database of over 700,000 midi songs that can be downloaded. Purchase of midi fingering data will be through a web based content management system where customers can login and upload data.
