MIDI Glove Vision Statement

I will be creating a device I am referring to as a MIDI Glove. Its purpose will be to send MIDI signals to various programs to trigger certain controls.
The main purpose and intention for this is to control and create music solely with the use of hand gestures and finger taps. It will be able to trigger audio clips, musical notes, songs, audio effects, software controls, etc.
It will be able to be used for song composition, live dj control, electronic music production, live looping, light control, and more.

This glove will be composed of a variety of sensors on different parts of the hands to pick up different changing outside factors.
I plan to have pressure sensors on each finger, flex sensors on the top of each finger, tilt sensors, accelerometers, and buttons.
Each will be able to be programmed to different controls within the audio program to allow for complete customization.

I also hope to include LEDs and visual aspects on the top of the globe to make the performance and production process more engaging and entertaining for both the user and the audience.
