The X170 protocol as a vehicle for 3D sound control Presented by Shane Haw Supervisor: Richard Foss Email: g08h4123@campus.ru.ac.za
A brief overview of my research. • Further investigation into: • Audio Networking and the use of the X170 as a control protocol • Computer Graphics, Google Sketchup and the Ruby API • Human Computer Interaction and the use of the Microsoft Kinect • Questions
Audio Networking • The AES-X170 Protocol is a control protocol • Allows the creation of X170 parameters, • And the accessing and settingof remote and local parameters • Access is provided through the X170 parameter heirarchy
Audio Networking • The X170 Addressing hierarchy has the following sturcture: • Section Block (High level functional group) • Section Type (Subgroups) • Section Number (Channel/interface number) • Parameter Block (Cluster or group) • Parameter Block Index • Parameter Type (Describes actual parameter) • Parameter Index (Specific within parameter)
Computer Graphics • Google Sketchup
Computer Graphics • Google Sketchup provides a Ruby API • Plugin Folder • Scripts can then be interacted with through the use of tcp sockets
Human Computer Interaction • MicrosoftKinect • The SDK released on the 24th of June 2011 • Provides skeletal tracking • Active tracking up to 2 people • Passive tracking of up to 4 additional people • Provides the 3 dimensional coordinates of several preset skeletal joints
