  1. 21. Integrating Spatial Audio in Voice Guidance Systems

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Mario Lopes Batres; [2020]
    Keywords : spatial sound; driving; navigation guidance; augmented reality; rumsligt ljud; körning; navigering; förstärkt verklighet;

    Abstract : Navigation systems are commonly used in our daily lives. Research has shown that spatial audio presents one opportunity for more effectively communicating to the driver the direction of the next manoeuvre. READ MORE

  3. 22. Navigating through haptics and sound: Exploring non-visual navigation for urban cyclists to enhance the cycling experience

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle (KS)

    Author : Anette Isabella Giesa; [2019]
    Keywords : Interaction Design; non-visual interfaces; audio-tactile interaction; multi-sensory; bicycling experience; navigation system; embodied interfaces; urban mobility; cycling; vibro-tactile; open-ear headphones; wearables;

    Abstract : Bicyclist are increasingly shaping the picture of urban traffic. With regard to guided navigation through urban areas, navigation systems that are designed for this type of traffic participants do not offer a satisfying solution. Voice instructions are often perceived as annoying and far too detailed. READ MORE

  4. 23. Comparing listeners’ ability to detect and lateralize simulated sound reflections

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Psykologiska institutionen

    Author : Freja Isohanni (fd Kempe); [2019]
    Keywords : Psychology; Psychophysics; Psychoacoustics; Human echolocation;

    Abstract : Echolocation is using lagging sounds as cues to localize the objects reflecting them. The precedence effect (PE) occurs when echoic signals are suppressed in favour of leading signals. In this study, the ability of nine listeners to overcome the PE when detecting and lateralizing echoic signals through headphones was measured and compared. READ MORE

  5. 24. The Impact of the Difference Signal on the Perceived Loudness of a Piece of Stereo Rock Music : A Comparison Between Headphones and Loudspeakers

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för konst, kommunikation och lärande

    Author : Joel Hansson Lagerberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Loudness; BS.1770; Headphones; Loudspeakers; Stereo; Perception;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study was to evaluate how the BS.1770 Loudness Standard is affected by the amount of difference signal present in the signal being measured, and if this affection is different between the two playback systems Headphones and Loudspeakers. The study was restricted to rock music productions in a stereo format. READ MORE

  6. 25. Designing Multimodal Warning Signals for Cyclists of the Future

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle

    Author : Anton Nordmark; [2019]
    Keywords : industrial design engineering; human–computer interface; sound design; audiotactile design; crossmodal attention; bone conduction headphones; multimodal collision warnings; vulnerable road user VRU ; V2Cyclist; C-ITS; V2X; B2V; teknisk design; användargränssnitt; ljuddesign; taktildesign; korsmodal uppmärksamhet; benledande hörlurar; multimodala kollisionsvarningar; sårbara trafikanter; V2Cyclist; C-ITS; V2X; B2V;

    Abstract : Traffic is a complex environment in which many actors take part; several new technologies bring promises of reducing this complexity. However, cyclists—a particularly vulnerable road user group—have so far been somewhat put aside in these new developments, among them being Cooperative Intelligent Traffic Systems (C-ITS) and their aspects of human–computer interaction.
