Key Points

To design and implement an interactive sound installation using networked jewellery that generates real-time audio responsive to physical gestures.
Designed a collection of networked wearable jewellery integrated with gestural sensing capabilities.
Developed a real-time sound synthesis system mapped directly to movement data transmitted by the wearable devices.
Achieved low-latency, real-time sonic generation driven by user gestures detected through wearable jewellery.
Demonstrated an embodied interaction model bridging wearable decorative artifacts, wireless networking, and spatial sound synthesis.
