PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS METHOD, PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS SYSTEM AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240013754 titled 'PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS METHOD, PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS SYSTEM AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a computer system that implements a performance analysis method for a musical instrument. The method involves obtaining performance data and a performance image of a performer playing the instrument. Finger position data is generated from the performance image, and fingering data representing the performer's fingering in the performance is generated based on the performance data and finger position data. A performance image is then displayed based on the generated fingering data.
- The computer system implements a performance analysis method for a musical instrument.
- Performance data representing the performer's performance on the instrument is obtained.
- A performance image of the performer's fingers playing the instrument is obtained.
- Finger position data representing the position of each finger is generated from the performance image.
- Fingering data representing the performer's fingering in the performance is generated based on the performance data and finger position data.
- A performance image is displayed based on the generated fingering data.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Music education and training: The system can be used to analyze and provide feedback on a performer's finger positions and fingering technique, helping them improve their skills.
- Performance evaluation: The system can be used to objectively assess a performer's fingering accuracy and technique, providing valuable feedback for practice and improvement.
- Instrument design and optimization: The system can be used to analyze and compare different finger positions and fingering techniques, aiding in the design and optimization of musical instruments.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Subjective evaluation: The system provides an objective analysis of finger positions and fingering technique, eliminating the need for subjective evaluations.
- Inaccurate feedback: The system provides accurate feedback on finger positions and fingering technique, ensuring performers receive precise guidance for improvement.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved performance skills: Performers can use the system to identify and correct finger position and fingering errors, leading to improved performance skills.
- Efficient practice: The system provides real-time feedback, allowing performers to efficiently practice and make adjustments as needed.
- Objective evaluation: The system provides an objective evaluation of finger positions and fingering technique, giving performers a clear understanding of their strengths and areas for improvement.
Original Abstract Submitted
a performance analysis method is implemented by a computer system. the performance analysis method includes: obtaining performance data representing performance by a performer on a musical instrument; obtaining a performance image of performer's fingers playing the musical instrument; generating finger position data representing a position of each of the performer's fingers from the performance image; generating fingering data representing fingering in a performance by the performer based on the performance data and the finger position data; and displaying a performance image based on the generated fingering data.
