Nearly one quarter of all songs played on spotify are skipped within the first 5 seconds and only every second song is played to its end. So, it seems that, despite intelligent algorithms and machine learning, the music suggestions often do not suit the peoples tastes. KIP is an intelligent music controller based on the users selection of genres, subgenres and moods to better match your music choices to your current mood. It presents a new and intuitive way to interact with music.
FEATURES
The interaction is based on the physical movement of KIP. You can navigate through the different levels of the user interface by physically tilting, shaking, rotating, and knocking the device. All modes of input are recognized by a motion sensor. No mechanical elements like buttons, swiches or potentiometers are needed wich makes KIP extremely reliable and robust.
