      This paper looks at non-speech uses of the human voice in interactive objects. A collection of projects using non-verbal voice, as input and as output, is briefly reviewed. The Laughing Swing - an interactive object using ...
    • Learnabiltiy of Sound Cues for Environmental Features: Auditory Icons, Earcons, Spearcons, and Speech 

      Dingler, Tilman; Lindsay, Jeffrey; Walker, Bruce N. (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      Awareness of features in our environment is essential for many daily activities. While often awareness of such features comes from vision, this modality is sometimes unavailable or undesirable. In these instances, auditory ...
    • Localization of Virtual Sound Created Using Individualized and Non-Individualized HRTF for Direct and Reflected Sound 

      Nishimura, Ryouichi; Kato, Hiroaki (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      Good sound localization is an essential factor required for virtual auditory display (VAD) systems. These systems especially those based on the Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) often encounter the problem where the ...
    • On the Use of Sound for Representing Geometrical Information of Virtual Objects 

      Shelley, Simon; Alonso, Miguel; Hermes, Dik; Kohlrausch, Armin (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      This study is concerned with the use of sound in a multimodal interface that is currently being developed as an aid for product design. By using this interface, the designer is able to physically interact with a virtual ...
    • Pairing Colored Socks and Following a Red Serpentine With Sounds of Musical Instruments 

      Bologna, Guido; Deville, Benoit; Pun, Thierry (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      The See ColOr interface transforms a small portion of a colored video image into sound sources represented by spatialized musical instruments. This interface aims at providing visually impaired people with a capability of ...
    • Perceived Self Motion in Virtual Acoustic Space Facilitated by Passive Whole-Body Movement 

      Martens, William L.; Sakamoto, Shuichi; Suzuki, Yoiti (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      When moving sound sources are displayed for a listener in a manner that is consistent with the motion of a listener through an environment populated by stationary sound sources, listeners may perceive that the sources are ...
