This thesis investigates the design of audio for feedback in human-technology interaction- auditory displays. Despite promising progress in research and the potential benefits, we currently see little impact of audio in everyday interfaces. Changing interaction paradigms, new co…
Animal models in the past decade have shown that noise exposure may affect temporal envelope processing at supra-threshold levels while the absolute hearing threshold remains in the normal range. However, human studies have failed to consistently find such issue due to poor cont…
This book traces the full history of noise in and around cars shows how we created auditory privacy in our cars. It is about the sounds of car engines, tires, wipers, blinkers, warning signals, in-car audio systems and, ultimately, about how we became used to listen while drivin…
