  • Patent number: 10810979
    Abstract: A piano system with key assisted user input may include one or more execution devices, one or more sensors, at least one signal processing circuit, a processor and a display. The one or more sensors may be configured to detect a signal indicating a status change of at least one of the one or more execution devices. The at least one signal processing circuit may be configured to generate a control signal for controlling an input of a computer device in response to the signal detected by the one or more sensors. The processor may be configured to process the control signal to determine content to be displayed on a user interface. The display may be configured to display the determined content on the user interface.

  • Patent number: 10636402
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and system for calibrating a musical device. In some embodiments, a method for calibrating a musical device includes: determining a first time corresponding to a first instruction that instructs a driving device to actuate a first component of a musical device using a first force; receiving first sensor data relating to motion information of the first component; determining a second time based on the first sensor data; determining, by a hardware processor, a first time deviation based on the first time and the second time; and calibrating the musical device based on the first time deviation.

  • Patent number: 10629175
    Abstract: A smart musical instrument system may include a musical instrument, a first sensor, a second sensor, a processor device, and a reminder device. The first sensor may be configured to obtain first performance data reflecting operations of the musical instrument. The may be second sensor configured to receive second performance data associated with hand posture of a user of the smart instrument system. The processor device may be in communication with the first sensor and the second sensor, and may be configured to generate feedback based on at least one of the first performance data or the second performance data. The reminder device may be configured to deliver the feedback to the user.
