Exploring the usability of sound strategies for guiding task: toward a generalization of sonification design
Résumé
This article aims at providing a new Parameter Mapping Sonification approach in order to facilitate and generalize sonification design for different applications. First a definition of the target as a con-cept that enables a general sonification strategy that is not limited to specific data types is given. This concept intends to facilitate the sepa-ration between sound and information to display. Rather than directly displaying data dimensions through the variation of a specific sound pa-rameter, the approach aims at displaying the distance between a given data value and the requested value. Then a taxonomy of sound strategies based on sound that allow the construction of several strategy types is presented. Finally, several sound strategies are evaluated with a user ex-periment and the taxonomy is discussed on the basis of user's guidance behavior during a guiding task.
