Abstract :
The proposed system is conceived as a part of a project entitled: "artificial body and real body". The focus on this project is to explore this dualism and the relationship between artificiality and reality of human body in a context of musical theater. For that purpose, a performance involving an automated mechanical instruments ("RoboticMusic") and a gesture controller ("BodySuit") were developed. In particular; in this paper, the proposed system is introduced which integrates the "BodySuit" and the "RoboticMusic". Furthermore, the possible uses and applications will be also discussed. "BodySuit" refers to a gesture controller in a data-suit type, which is wearied by a performer. By using such kind of gesture controller system, performer\´s gestures are converted into electronic signals that are used to control the movement of each of the components of the "RobotMusic". The RobotMusic is composed by five different kinds of percussion robots (humanoid robot type or so called "bio-inspired arms"). In this paper, we will detail and discuss their technical matters.
