Slap Snap Tap combines wearable sensors with physical block programming to enable enhanced expression through movement. By slapping on a set of sensor straps, snapping in code that links movement triggers to sound actions, and tapping the sensors to activate a play experience, users can combine motion and sound in creative ways. A dancer can create music through movement; an athlete can add emphasis to her performance; demonstrators can synchronize and amplify a chant; and anyone can create sound effects for life moments. Slap Snap Tap is a method of the Slay Play endeavor which aims to broaden participation in computational creation by using movement as a pathway into computational thinking.
