Developing the first completely new class of wind instrument mouthpiece introduced in recorded history. For wind instruments there are reed mouthpieces, double reed, jet reed, lip reed, etc. These have all existed in various forms for millenia. My design, based on over 15 years of research uses optical sensing to very precisely measure multiple dimensions of the embouchure.

It will be available in the form of a hands-free music controller supported on what we call the "neck unit" or on a variety of hand-held units of different fingering styles that we call "finger units".
