Introduction

Interactive Conducting System A system that allows a user to conduct a

virtual orchestra Conductors gestures captured using

webcam Depending on gestures orchestra plays

accordingly Can be an easy way of learning how to

conduct music Easy and fun but at the same time

informative Spread awareness about classical music

User Requirements

Provide the user with a means to perform conduction Queuing the ensembles when to play Controlling volume of the ensembles Maintaining or changing tempo

Provide a brief introduction to the theory of music Not focus of project Some written literature will be provided
