The Tap-Tap: A Wearable Device to Make Music Learning More Accessible

Music learners who are blind or have low vision may miss non-verbal cues such as head nods and gestures during music lessons. As a result, certain musical information is inaccessible to them. The aim of this study was to explore the long-term use of wearable haptic devices for real-time communication between teachers and students in a music learning context.

Abstract

Music learners who are blind or have low vision may miss non-verbal cues such as head nods and gestures during music lessons. As a result, certain musical information is inaccessible to them. The aim of this study was to explore the long-term use of wearable haptic devices for real-time communication between teachers and students in a music learning context.
