AuSynthAR: A simple low-cost modular synthesizer based on Augmented Reality

Pedro Pablo Lucas

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

AuSynthAR is a digital instrument based on Augmented Reality (AR), which allows sound synthesis modules to create simple sound networks. It only requires a mobile device, a set of tokens, a sound output device and, optionally, a MIDI controller, which makes it an affordable instrument. An application running on the device generates the sounds and the graphical augmentations over the tokens.
