Wear This Device and Jam on the Guitar Anywhere

Guitar

If you've ever caught yourself shredding on air guitar, we've got some news for you: The art of imaginary jamming might be getting a whole lot fancier — and maybe even a little less silly.

Designer Eugene Wang has developed a concept for a wearable device that allows you to practice your instrument on the go

Using motion technology, in the style of Leap and Myo, Wang's proposed Soundbrace would have the power to transform your arms and fingers into instruments.

To get set up, musicians would first calibrate the sensor-packed bangles by playing an actual guitar (with the Soundbrace attached) to determine baseline measurements for different chords. That way, when you jam sans guitar, the bracelets would be able to measure distance to determine where your hands are on the "fretboard."
