This paper describes experimentation using a variety of sensor techniques to capture body gestures and train a student performing the North Indian hand drums known as the Tabla. A comparative study of motion capture systems, wearable accelerometer units, and wireless inertial sensor packages, is described. Each acquisition method has it advantages and disadvantages which are explored through trial and error. The paper describes a number of applications using real-time signal processing techniques for analysis, performance, performer posture detection and machine perception of human interaction.
