Scrubber: An Interface for Friction-induced Sounds
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Scrubber is a general controller for friction-induced sound. Allowing the user to engage in familiar gestures and feeling actual friction, the synthesized sound gains an evocative nature for the performer and a meaningful relationship between gesture and sound for the audience. It can control a variety of sound synthesis algorithms of which we demonstrate examples based on granular synthesis, wave-table synthesis and physically informed modeling.

Acoustics of friction.
This article presents an overview of the acoustics of friction by covering friction sounds, friction-induced vibrations and waves in solids, and descriptions of other frictional phenomena related to acoustics. Friction, resulting from the sliding contact of solids, often gives rise to diverse forms of waves and oscillations within solids which frequently lead to radiation of sound to the surrou...
متن کاملPhase transition of the dry friction between crystalline surfaces induced by normal load
A major source of energy dissipation and surface wear is the kinetic friction at the interfaces of sliding bodies. Traditionally, on a macroscopic scale, this undesirable effect is reduced with lubricating the surfaces by introducing oil into their interface. An interesting phenomenon, called superlubricity, has been reported on a nanometer scale where dry (without lubricant oil) fruition and w...
متن کاملA numerical analysis of effect of segmental lining joints on tunnel support internal forces under seismic loading
During an earthquake, the better performance of segmental tunnel lining, compared to the continuous in-cast concrete lining, is generally related to the joints between segments. In order to better understand the influence of the segment joints, their effect on the internal forces induced in tunnel lining simultaneously with the effects of the other influential parameters should be considered. I...
متن کاملFrom sound to shape: auditory perception of drawing movements.
This study investigates the human ability to perceive biological movements through friction sounds produced by drawings and, furthermore, the ability to recover drawn shapes from the friction sounds generated. In a first experiment, friction sounds, real-time synthesized and modulated by the velocity profile of the drawing gesture, revealed that subjects associated a biological movement to thos...
متن کاملContact Sounds for Continuous Feedback
The role of continuous auditory feedback in multimodal embodied interfaces is advocated. Examples of physicsbased cartoon sound models (rolling and friction) are used to display deviation from equilibrium and exerted effort in manipulative interfaces.
