“…Mariette [63] described audio AR as "simply the introduction of artificial sound material into the real world", with a range of characteristics defining different types of audio AR, such as the predominant sensory modality, the spatial characteristics of the sound, the means of presentation, and user tracking/mobility. Such a broad definition encapsulates many other terms and auditory experiences, from different forms of Spatial and Location Based Audio [63,101,12,62,89,85,68,21] to Mediated Reality and Augmented Perception [99,24,107,104,100,111]. Indeed, even the use of "mobile transistor radios or early portable tape players with headphones could both be understood as presenting an augmented reality" [63] as real and virtual content is combined in both cases.…”

“…Auditory Altered Reality MR audio experiences intended to modify or overwrite reality. Also known as Augmented Audio Reality, and includes Auditory Mediated Reality [99], Warped Reality [100] and auditory equivalents of Substitutional Reality [96]. A notable example is Spence and Shankar's work altering the perception of food with sound [98], the auditory equivalent to MetaCookie+ [78].…”

Auditory headsets capable of actively or passively intermixing both real and virtual sounds are in-part acoustically transparent. This paper explores the consequences of acoustic transparency, both on the perception of virtual audio content, given the presence of a real-world auditory backdrop, and more broadly in facilitating a wearable, personal, private, always-available soundspace. We experimentally compare passive acoustically transparent, and active noise cancelling, orientation-tracked auditory headsets across a range of content types, both indoors and outdoors for validity. Our results show differences in terms of presence, realness and externalization for select content types. Via interviews and a survey, we discuss attitudes toward acoustic transparency (e.g. being perceived as safer), the potential shifts in audio usage that might be precipitated by adoption, and reflect on how such headsets and experiences fit within the area of Mixed Reality.

“…We hope that our characterisation of current soundscape research in HCI presents an overview of this increasingly relevant theme within HCI research and will result in greater overall clarity, transparency, and replicability of future soundscape research.

“…Environments include but are not exclusive to: outside nature, homes, and factory work settings. Nine of the papers included in this category either refer to Schafer's defnition of soundscape as an acoustic environment, include a reference to Truax, or both [60,100,139,169,185,201,209,241,264]. Of these nine, two actively utilise the aspects of soundscapes described by Schafer, i.e., 'keynote', 'signal', and 'soundmark' [139,201].…”

Soundscapes' are an increasingly active topic in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and interaction design. From mapping acoustic environments through sound recordings to designing compositions as interventions, soundscapes appear as a recurring theme across a wide body of HCI research. Based on this growing interest, now is the time to explore the types of studies in which soundscapes provide a valuable lens to HCI research. In this paper, we review papers from conferences sponsored or co-sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction in which the term 'soundscape' occurs. We analyse a total of 235 papers to understand the role of soundscapes as a research focus and identify untapped opportunities for soundscape research within HCI. We identify two common soundscape conceptualisations: (1) Acoustic environments and (2) Compositions, and describe what characterises studies into each concept and the hybrid forms that also occur. On the basis of this, we carve out a foundation for future soundscape research in HCI as a methodological anchor to form a common ground and support this growing research interest. Finally, we ofer fve recommendations for further research into soundscapes within HCI. CCS CONCEPTS• Human-centered computing → HCI theory, concepts and models.

“…PAD wearers have to compromise between the amount of external noise they want (for convenience, safety, or social reason) and the acceptable level of distraction or annoyance during the listening. One solution could be to implement the PAD with some automatic voice detector that would adapt the content of the headphones if a speech source is detected in the vicinity of the user [20,107,214]. It can increase environmental awareness while suppressing some undesirable background noise (e.g., engine noise in a train or traffic in the street).…”
