We often hear about musicians writing a chart topping song on the bus, or while watching the sun set on the beach. Designer Petr Hampl came up with a concept design that will help musicians catch that inspiration anywhere with the tap of their fingers, literally.

The heart of the concept design is a glove with [friction-sensitive sensors on its fingertips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roli-airwave). A recorder on the back of the glove takes this input, sends it wirelessly (probably via Bluetooth) to your headset and [saves it for later editing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jamcorder) of the new masterpiece.

I love this new direction of designs that let you [do things with your fingers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lava-genie). Check out more below.
