Shape of Music

Description

Integrating music into Computer Science (CS) education could promote children’s creativity, change the stereotypical perspective of CS, and encourage women, ethnic or cultural minorities involved in the Computer Science area. In this paper, we use Augmented Reality (AR) technology, which enables continuous visual feedback and varied digital scenes in the real world, to design a tangible programming system – ARMPro for children. It allows children to create customized AR effects to visualize music with low- cost materials by constructing tangible program sequences. Meanwhile, children could interact with their music during the whole process. ARMPro is expected to be more intuitive, intriguing and instructional to enrich children’s creating and programming experiences.
