Hatsune Miku's Magical Drawing Tablet

This is our entry for the "Hatsune Miku Magical Mirai 2024 Programming Contest".

"Hatsune Miku's Magical Drawing Tablet" is an interactive toy where you can draw accessories and the stage for Hatsune Miku to dance to the music while she sings and the lyrics are displayed on screen. All 6 songs from the Magical Mirai 2004 selection are available.

My goal when creating this interactive piece was to replicate the feeling of joyfulness of a kid playing with a drawing tablet toy, and mix that with the musical experience of Magical Mirai.

As such, the experience of every individual will be different, as they customize the stage and Miku to their likings.

The end result required a lot of experimentation of possible ways to interact. It was very fun to work with the API and bring Miku to life to dance to different songs, even some in the future I might not know now!

Unfortunately, our entry was not selected for the final round of the contest. I still hope you can have fun using it!
