Ballet Hero

Project Overview

Ballet Hero is a wearable garment that incorporates visual feedback inspired by animation techniques to assist students in learning ballet. This was an extracurricular team project from Fall 2013 - Spring 2014.

Ballet Hero won Best Functional Design at the 2014 ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computers Design Competition 2014 and was published as part of the proceedings. View paper on the ACM website.
