About this app

Transform your smartphone into a virtual drumstick and play music anywhere with AirDrum!

Using a relative spatial tracking system powered by your device's internal sensors (Rotation Vector and Linear Accelerometer), the application detects your wrist extensions in real-time to trigger high-fidelity drum sounds, dynamically adapting to your posture.

Key Features:
• Relative Spatial Mapping: The algorithm calculates shifts from the exact moment you prepare the strike, allowing smooth playback even if your arm is already tilted.
• Realistic Horizontal Grip: Specifically designed to be held horizontally as an extension of your hand, mimicking a real drumstick.
• 4 Interactive Pads: UP, DOWN, LEFT, and RIGHT directions are fully customizable via integrated selection menus.
• Dual Interaction Mode: Trigger sounds either by moving your device through the air or by tapping the large colored pads directly on the screen.
• High-Quality CC0 Samples: Premium audio samples (Crash, Bass Drum, Hi-Hat, Snare) selected from Creative Commons 0 libraries, optimized for low latency.
• Haptic Feedback Control: Toggle device vibration on or off at any time via a dedicated switch in the settings menu.

How to start:
Hold your phone horizontally, complete the quick 5-step calibration wizard to map your range of motion, and start practicing instantly in the sandbox test panel!

AirDrum works entirely offline, contains zero ads, and respects your privacy: no sensor data or personal information is ever recorded, stored, or transmitted.
Play virtual drums anywhere using your phone as a real drumstick!
