Advanced Interaction and VR/AR

Harnessing Audio
in Auto Control
The challenge of sonifying virtual objects
for gesture control of cars.

Richard Kronland-Martinet

T

his article presents
a gesture sonification
system for blind interface manipulation based
on interaction with a
virtual object (VO). Commands
are given through gestures, and sounds carry the feedback on
how the VO was affected. The sound feedback allows the
user to manipulate the interface without vision. Here, we
chose to focus on a swipe gesture. In the first part of the article, we study different curves that relate the VO parameters to
sound parameters to create the most natural association
between the two.
On the basis of this experiment, we undertook a second
experiment, comparing different sonification strategies for a
particular VO manipulation task. The results helped us to
classify the sound strategies and choose the most promising
ones for future studies.

THE RISE OF HIGH-TECH CARS
The automotive industry is increasingly integrating new
technologies to facilitate certain aspects of driving a car. In
recent years, for example, speed-control systems have been
introduced to make highway driving easier, and parking aid
systems have been engineered to automatically park cars
on city streets. These technologies also involve human-
machine interfaces (HMIs). The industry has introduced
touchscreens to replace the arrays of buttons that have increased with the available functions in vehicles. Touchscreens are now integrated in cars as a central multifunction
interface from which most of the vehicle systems are regulated. However, while buttons can be manipulated without
vision, which is convenient during driving, touchscreens
necessitate visual attention. In particular, the feedback on
the manipulated function is principally provided through
