Puff, puff, play: a sip-and-puff remote control for music playback
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce the Peripipe, a tangible remote control for a music player in the shape of a wooden tobacco pipe. The interaction is based on breath control, using sips and pu↵s as control commands. An atmospheric pressure sensor in the Peripipe senses changes in the air pressure. Based on these changes, the pipe determines when the user performs a pu↵, double-pu↵, sip, double-sip or a long pu↵ or long sip action, and wirelessly sends commands to a smartphone running the music player. Additionally, the Peripipe provides fumeovisual feedback, using color-illuminated smoke to display the system status. With the form factor, the materials used, the interaction through breath, and the ephemeral feedback we aim to emphasize the emotional component of listening to music that, in our eyes, is not very well reflected in traditional remote controls.

متن کاملOptimization of Fat-Reduced Puff Pastry Using Response Surface Methodology
Puff pastry is a high-fat bakery product with fat playing a key role, both during the production process and in the final pastry. In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) was successfully used to evaluate puff pastry quality for the development of a fat-reduced version. The technological parameters modified included the level of roll-in fat, the number of fat layers (50-200) and the fi...
