Music Playing Movement Display Control Device for Efficient Practice
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing music playing movement display control devices cannot efficiently allow players to practice continuous music playing movements as they only display finger positions at the current time, making it difficult to foresee subsequent movements and practice efficiently, and require complex operations to set start and end points for specific musical sections.
Innovation Solution
A music playing movement display control device that draws movement images of fingers indicating pressed key positions on a keyboard based on music playing information, including sound generation start and continuation times, pitch, and finger usage, using keyboard data and structure data to display finger movements during a musical performance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If the display shows finger positions only at the current time, then the display is simple and real-time, but the player cannot foresee subsequent movements and practice efficiently
Solution Approach 1:
The patent displays future finger positions in advance before they occur in the musical performance. The display unit shows not only the current finger position but also predetermined future finger positions at predetermined future times, allowing players to anticipate and practice upcoming movements. This preliminary display of future states enables better preparation and practice efficiency.
2Ease of operation
If the player wants to confirm a specific musical section, then the player can set start and end points, but the setting operations become complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit automatically determines the playback section based on the current playback position without requiring manual start and end point settings. When the player presses a section confirmation button, the system automatically sets the section from the current position to a predetermined future position, eliminating the need for complex manual configuration and enabling quick local practice.
3Productivity
If the display shows only current time finger positions, then the display is simple, but the player cannot practice continuous movements efficiently
Solution Approach 1:
The display unit presents future finger positions before they occur in the performance timeline. By showing predetermined future finger positions at predetermined future times, the system enables players to plan and practice continuous movement sequences in advance, improving practice efficiency and musical performance.
