| Summary: | This study presents the methodology and development of a digital Theremin using
MediaPipe to enable gesture-based controls for pitch, volume, and vibrato. Through a
comprehensive user study, the project evaluated the intuitiveness of the gesture-based
controls and the produced sound quality with PyAudio. The digital Theremin was generally
well-received, with participants demonstrating high controllability and showing a strong
preference for a particular sound version noted for its warmth and expressiveness. Challenges
identified include weak detection at screen edges and precise note-playing. Future work
includes enhancing responsiveness and gesture recognition accuracy to expand the digital
Theremin's appeal. Additionally, future work can investigate leveraging hand gestures in
Unity development
