Rhythmic Walking Interaction with Auditory Feedback: Ecological Approaches in a Tempo Following Experiment

IEEE Multimedia (2015)

Justyna Maculewicz Antti Jylhä Stefania Serafin Cumhur Erkut

We present an interactive auditory display for walking with sinusoidal tones or ecological, physically-based synthetic walking sounds.The feedback is either step-based or rhythmic, with constant or adaptive tempo.In a tempo-following experiment, we investigate different interaction modes and auditory feedback, based on the MSE between the target and performed tempo, and the stability of the latter.The results indicate that the MSE with ecological sounds is comparable to that with the sinusoidal tones, yet ecological sounds are considered more natural.Adaptive conditions result in stable tempi.These results have implications on the design of interactive entertainment or therapeutical applications.

Pitch Processing of Speech: Comparison of Psychoacoustic and Electrophysiological Data

Archives of Acoustics (2013)

Abstract The present study consisted of two experiments. The goal of the first experiment was to establish the just noticeable differences for the fundamental frequency of the vowel /u/ by using the 2AFC method. We obtained the threshold value for 27 cents. This value is larger than the motor reaction values which had been observed in previous experiments (e.g. 9 or 19 cents). The second experiment was intended to provide neurophysiological confirmation of the detection of shifts in a frequency, using event-related potentials (ERPs). We concentrated on the mismatch negativity (MMN) - the component elicited by the change in the pattern of stimuli. Its occurrence is correlated with the discrimination threshold. In our study, MMN was observed for changes greater than 27 cents - shifts of ±50 and 100 cents (effect size - Cohen’s d = 2.259). MMN did not appear for changes of ±10 and 20 cents. The results showed that the values for which motor responses can be observed are indeed lower than those for perceptual thresholds.

Auditory Displays for Automated Driving — Challenges and Opportunities

Pontus Larsson Justyna Maculewicz Johan Fagerlönn Max Lachmann

The current position paper discusses vital challenges related to the user experience design in unsupervised, highly automated cars. These challenges are: (1) how to avoid motion sickness, (2) how to ensure users’ trust in the automation, (3) how to ensure usability and support the formation of accurate mental models of the automation system, and (4) how to provide a pleasant and enjoyable experience. We argue for that auditory displays have the potential to help solve these issues. While auditory displays in modern vehicles typically make use of discrete and salient cues, we argue that the use of less intrusive continuous sonic interaction could be more beneficial for the user experience.
