Title:


    atmoSphere: Designing Cross-Modal Music Experiences Using Spatial Audio with Haptic Feedback

Presenter(s):


Description:


    We use cross-Modal correspondence -the interaction between two or more sensory modalities- to create an engaging user experience. We present atmoSphere, a system that provides users immersive music experiences using spatial audio and haptic feedback. We focused on cross-modality of auditory and haptic sensations to augment the sound environment. The atmoSphere consists of a spatialized music and a sphere shaped device which provides haptic feedback. It provides users imagination of large sound environment although they feel haptic sensation in their hands. First user feedback is very encouraging. According to participants, atmoSphere creates an engaging experience.
