This paper presents a device that transforms a skate’s sound and motion into a real-time auditory tool for figure skaters. Inspired by the skating tradition of “figures,” the Motion Augmented Acoustic Skate system enhances a skate’s existing acoustic ...

With the increasing interest in movement sonification and expressive gesture-based interaction, it is important to understand which factors contribute to movement learning and how. We explore the effects of movement sonification and users’ musical ...

Negative body perceptions are a major predictor of physical inactivity, a serious health concern. Sensory feedback can be used to alter such body perceptions; movement sonification, in particular, has been suggested to affect body perception and levels ...

Can we influence how a robot is perceived by designing the sound of its movement? Drawing from practices in film sound, we overlaid a video depicting a robot's movement routine with three types of artificial movement sound. In a between-subject study ...

The project emphSounding Feet explores the creative possibilities of interactively controlling sound synthesis through pressure sensitive shoe inlays that can monitor minute body movements. The project is motivated by the authors' own experience of ...

Since the end of the 1980s, interactive musical systems have played an increasingly relevant role in dance performances. More recently, the use of interactive auditory feedback for sensorimotor learning such as movement sonification has gained currency ...

When designing movement sonification, its effect on peoples' movement must be considered. Recent work has shown that using musical expectancy within movement sonification can impact the way people move. However, this body of work has also found that ...

In this paper we describe a novel approach to the sonification of crawl swim movement. The design method integrates task and data analysis from a sport science perspective with subjective experience of swimmers and swimming coaches, and strongly relies ...

In this paper, we describe the Augmented Speed-skate Experience (ASE), a case of movement sonification in professional speed-skating. We designed and developed a system that provides feedback on technique to a professional speed-skater through an extra ...

This paper describes a concept for providing acoustic feedback during on-water training to elite rowers and its implementation into the training process. The final aim was to improve the mean boat velocity by a reduction of intra-cyclic interruptions in ...
