DeviceCycle: Rapid and Reusable Prototyping of Gestural Interfaces, Applied to Audio Browsing by Similarity
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the development of rapid and reusable gestural interface prototypes for navigation by similarity in an audio database and for sound manipulation, using the AudioCycle application. For this purpose, we propose and follow guidelines for rapid prototyping that we apply using the PureData visual programming environment. We have mainly developed three prototypes of manual control: one combining a 3D mouse and a jog wheel, a second featuring a force-feedback 3D mouse, and a third taking advantage of the multitouch trackpad. We discuss benefits and shortcomings we experienced while prototyping using this approach.

Audioscapes: Exploring Surface Interfaces for Music Exploration
There is a growing interest in touch-based and gestural interfaces as alternatives to the dominant mouse, keyboard and monitor interaction. Content and context-aware visualizations of audio collections have been proposed as a more effective way to interact with the increasing amounts of audio data available digitally. Audioscapes is a framework for prototyping and exploring how touch-based and ...

Background and Aim: The current research aims at prototyping query-by-humming music information retrieval systems for smart phones. Methods: This multi-method research follows simulation technique from mixed models of the operations research methodology, and the documentary research method, simultaneously. Two chromatic harmonica albums comprised the research population. To achieve the purpose ...
متن کاملDeveloping Touchless Interfaces with GestIT
In this paper, we report on the development of touchless interfaces for supporting long lasting tasks, which need an interleaving between the interaction with the system and the focus on other activities. As an example, we considered a dish cooking task, which enables selecting and browsing the information about different recipes while cooking through gestural and vocal interaction. The applica...

متن کاملBeyond the Query-By-Example Paradigm: New Query Interfaces for Music Information Retrieval
The majority of existing work in music information retrieval for audio signals has followed the content-based query-by-example paradigm. In this paradigm a musical piece is used as a query and the result is a list of other musical pieces ranked by their content similarity. In this paper we describe algorithms and graphical user interfaces that enable novel alternative ways for querying and brow...
