Contribution
It presents a novel immersive application combining spatialized sound and visual feedback for interactive musical experiences with factory machinery.
Findings
Successful implementation of spatialized audio feedback
Engagement of users in conducting virtual machinery
Application demonstrated in a large immersive setup
Abstract
This paper presents an immersive application where users receive sound and visual feedbacks on their interactions with a virtual environment. In this application, the users play the part of conductors of an orchestra of factory machines since each of their actions on interaction devices triggers a pair of visual and audio responses. Audio stimuli were spatialized around the listener. The application was exhibited during the 2013 Science and Music day and designed to be used in a large immersive system with head tracking, shutter glasses and a 10.2 loudspeaker configuration.
