Haptic techniques for browsing sound maps organized by similarity
Abstract
This demo paper showcases haptic techniques for browsing sound maps organized by content-based similarity. Our system Freesound Tracker forks the Freesound Explorer application inside a web browser augmented with haptic capabilities using the Chai3d library that we modified to support Haply haptic devices, ours configured with a 2-DOF pantograph mechanism. A first technique enhances the exploratory navigation of sound maps by adding physical effects, such as: magnetizing the pointer to its closest sound item, rendering viscosity when hovering items. A second technique assists loop-based musical creation by having user-defined sound paths followed by the force-feedback pointing device.
