ComTouch: design of a vibrotactile communication device
TL;DR: The design of ComTouch is described, a device that augments remote voice communication with touch, by converting hand pressure into vibrational intensity between users in real-time, and the potential of the tactile channel to enhance the existing voice communication channel is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cutaneous Grooves: Composing for the Sense of Touch
Eric Gunther,Sile O'Modhrain +1 more
TL;DR: A system that facilitates the composition and perception of intricate, musically structured spatio-temporal patterns of vibration on the surface of the body is described, and some potential evolutionary branches of tactile composition are posited.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
GpsTunes: controlling navigation via audio feedback
TL;DR: This work combines the functionality of a mobile Global Positioning System (GPS) with that of an MP3 player, implemented on a PocketPC, to produce a handheld system capable of guiding a user to their desired target location via continuously adapted music feedback.
Journal ArticleDOI
A framework for the evaluation of digital musical instruments
TL;DR: For the field of DMI design, a much broader definition of the term “evaluation” than that typically used in human–computer interaction (HCI) is required to reflect the fact that there are a number of stakeholders involved in the design and evaluation of DMIs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Tilt to scroll: evaluating a motion based vibrotactile mobile interface
Ian Oakley,Sile O'Modhrain +1 more
TL;DR: A novel input mapping, directly relating list position to device orientation, and two studies quantifying user performance with this system are described, indicating that both input mapping and the inclusion of vibrotactile feedback positively affect user performance and experience.
