Abstract
An apparatus and a method related to an application of a mobile terminal using an augmented reality technique capture an image of a musical instrument directly drawn/sketched by a user to recognize the particular relevant musical instrument, and provide an effect of playing the musical instrument on the recognized image as if a real instrument were being played. The apparatus preferably includes an image recognizer and a sound source processor. The image recognizer recognizes a musical instrument on an image through a camera. The sound source processor outputs the recognized musical instrument on the image on a display unit to use the same for a play, and matches the musical instrument play on the image to a musical instrument play output on the display unit.
