Self Commision: Aero One
Playing Augmented Reality music out of thin air.
As part of our ongoing exploration of the interaction possibilities of
augmented reality, we released Aero One: an app that lets you place
virtual instruments and audio recordings in space. Wave your phone
like a virtual drumstick and hear the music come out of thin air!
Immersive audio in your pocket.
We built Aero One to push the boundaries of interaction design in
mobile AR. With Aero One, you can place virtual instruments in the
space around you and play them using your mobile device as a 6DoF
controller.
NEEEU developed several AR audio prototypes NEEEU over the years. Aero
showcases some of our more promising experiments in a playful package.
At the core of Aero One is an augmented reality sandbox that lets you
place audio bubbles in the 3D space around you. To play them, you
physically move your smartphone into the bubble you want to play. The
app also lets you record your own sounds to create your own custom
instruments or place voice messages in space.
To mix things up and give people something to play with out of the
box, we added a collection of pre-made instruments like a harp, a drum
kit and... a duck.
