In this paper we present the augmented violin developed at IRCAM. This instrument is an acoustic violin with added sensing capabilities to measure the bow acceleration in realtime. We explain first the approach we developed to characterize bowing styles. Second, we describe the realtime implementation of the bowing style recognition system. Finally we describe an electro-acoustic music composition, Bogenlied, written for the augmented violin.
