Book Synopsis Spatial Auditory Human-Computer Interfaces by : Jaka Sodnik
Download or read book Spatial Auditory Human-Computer Interfaces written by Jaka Sodnik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-03 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on a special group of auditory interfaces using spatial sound for the representation of information. The addition of information on the location of a selected sound source or a group of sources shows many advantages over a mere single-channel audio. This survey explains the most important limitations of the human hearing system and the perception of spatial sound. It also includes some technical background and basic processing and programming techniques for the creation and reproduction of spatial sounds with different audio equipment. Spatial auditory interfaces have evolved significantly in the last couple of years and can be found in a variety of environments where visual communication is obstructed or completely blocked by other activities, such as walking, driving, flying, operating multimodal virtual displays, etc. An entire chapter of this survey is dedicated to the most important areas of spatial auditory displays: mobile devices and computers, virtual environments, aircrafts and vehicles, visually impaired and blind computers users, and brain-computer interfaces.
Book Synopsis Auditory User Interfaces by : T.V. Raman
Download or read book Auditory User Interfaces written by T.V. Raman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Auditory User Interfaces: Toward the Speaking Computer describes a speech-enabling approach that separates computation from the user interface and integrates speech into the human-computer interaction. The Auditory User Interface (AUI) works directly with the computational core of the application, the same as the Graphical User Interface. The author's approach is implemented in two large systems, ASTER - a computing system that produces high-quality interactive aural renderings of electronic documents - and Emacspeak - a fully-fledged speech interface to workstations, including fluent spoken access to the World Wide Web and many desktop applications. Using this approach, developers can design new high-quality AUIs. Auditory interfaces are presented using concrete examples that have been implemented on an electronic desktop. This aural desktop system enables applications to produce auditory output using the same information used for conventional visual output. Auditory User Interfaces: Toward the Speaking Computer is for the electrical and computer engineering professional in the field of computer/human interface design. It will also be of interest to academic and industrial researchers, and engineers designing and implementing computer systems that speak. Communication devices such as hand-held computers, smart telephones, talking web browsers, and others will need to incorporate speech-enabling interfaces to be effective.

Book Synopsis Haptic and Audio Interaction Design by : Antti Pirhonen
Download or read book Haptic and Audio Interaction Design written by Antti Pirhonen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-09-08 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing Them Under the Same Roof The Haptic and Audio Interaction Design workshop series is now in its third year. These workshops have already demonstrated a clear need for a venue in which - searchers and practitioners in these areas gather together under the same roof. Three years have also shown clear developments in the approaches taken – with the benefits of combining haptics and audio shown practically and conceptually in this year’s - pers. In other words, it seems that when there is interaction between audio and haptic researchers, they really learn from each other and multimodal approaches emerge. There are many good reasons for using haptics and audio together. There are the practical needs in application development. Mobile devices are an obvious example – while the device is small in size and is used on the move, interaction cannot rely solely on visual display. On the other hand, the development of applications for visually impaired people makes it necessary to learn how to design non-visual user-interfaces for different situations.

Book Synopsis Skill Training in Multimodal Virtual Environments by : Massîmo Bergamasco
Download or read book Skill Training in Multimodal Virtual Environments written by Massîmo Bergamasco and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-08-24 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of augmented reality technologies used to assist human operators in complex manipulative operations—has brought an urgency to research into the modeling and training of human skills in Virtual Environments. However, modeling a specific act still represents a challenge in cognitive science. The same applies for the control of humanoid robots and the replication of skilled behavior of avatars in Virtual Environments. Skill Training in Multimodal Virtual Environments presents the scientific background, research outcomes, engineering developments, and evaluation studies conducted during the five years (2006-2011) of the project SKILLS–Multimodal Interfaces for Capturing and Transfer of Skill, funded by the European Commission under its 6th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development. The SKILLS project evaluated how to exploit robotics and virtual environment technologies for the training of specific skills. This book details the novel approach used in the study to cope with skill acquisition, setting aside the mainstream assumptions of common computer-assisted training simulators. It explores how the SKILLS approach generated new training scenarios that allow users to practice new experiences in the performance of the devised task. Using a carefully designed approach that balances science with practicality, the book explores how virtual and augmented reality systems can be designed to address the skill transfer and training in different application contexts. The application of the same roadmap to skills originating from domains such as sports, rehabilitation, industrial environment, and surgery sets this book apart. It demonstrates how technology-oriented training conditions can yield better results than more traditional training conditions.
Book Synopsis Voice User Interface Design by : Michael Harris Cohen
Download or read book Voice User Interface Design written by Michael Harris Cohen and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 2004 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to voice user interface (VUI) design. The VUI is perhaps the most critical factor in the success of any automated speech recognition (ASR) system, determining whether the user experience will be satisfying or frustrating, or even whether the customer will remain one. This book describes a practical methodology for creating an effective VUI design. The methodology is scientifically based on principles in linguistics, psychology, and language technology, and is illustrated here by examples drawn from the authors' work at Nuance Communications, the market leader in ASR development and deployment. The book begins with an overview of VUI design issues and a description of the technology. The authors then introduce the major phases of their methodology. They first show how to specify requirements and make high-level design decisions during the definition phase. They next cover, in great detail, the design phase, with clear explanations and demonstrations of each design principle and its real-world applications. Finally, they examine problems unique to VUI design in system development, testing, and tuning. Key principles are illustrated with a running sample application. A companion Web site provides audio clips for each example: www.VUIDesign.org The cover photograph depicts the first ASR system, Radio Rex: a toy dog who sits in his house until the sound of his name calls him out. Produced in 1911, Rex was among the few commercial successes in earlier days of speech recognition. Voice User Interface Design reveals the design principles and practices that produce commercial success in an era when effective ASRs are not toys but competitive necessities.

Book Synopsis Human Factors in Auditory Warnings by : Judy Edworthy
Download or read book Human Factors in Auditory Warnings written by Judy Edworthy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this book provides answers to many of the problems associated with the design and application of auditory warnings. It represents the position of contemporary auditory warnings research and development in a single unique volume. Application domains include air traffic control, aviation, emergency services, manufacturing, medicine, military and nuclear power. The contributors constitute many key experts in this area, some of whom are psychoacousticians, some psychologists and some ergonomists. Correspondingly, the chapters range from those covering basic topics such as audibility and localization of warnings, through psychological issues concerned with the relationship between design, understanding and the behavioural response, to the more general ergonomic issues of implementing the warnings in a particular context. Although each of the chapters takes a slightly different perspective, they all balance theoretical underpinning with practical application. The editors have undertaken to draw all of the contributions together by providing an overview of warnings research at the beginning of the book and summary of the contributions at the end. This book will appeal to all involved in the research, development, design and implementation of auditory warnings.
