The Voice

Today's automobiles serve not only as vehicles but also as mobile offices combining communication tools such as cellphones and car navigation systems providing online information services. The many switches are conventionally distributed on the dashboard. A move is under way, however, to combine them into a multifunctional touch panel. We propose a voice-supported active touch panel. Since information feedback to the operator is important in ensuring correct function selection, the panel we designed combines a vibrator and voice explanation. Touch sensors use PZT thin film sensors. The voice explanation uses a quick response system. This paper reports the features and configuration of the voice-supported active touch panel.

Basic Features

We propose a microtouch-sensor array applicable in high-temperature environments. PZT thin film was fabricated on a Ti substrate by a hydrothermal method and electrodes were deposited on it to form the sensor and actuator. The actuator is driven at a resonance frequency of 1.045 [kHz] and actuating voltage is low at ±5[V]. The sensor detects impedance change before and after contact. The sensor is simple and easy to miniaturize and works at temperature up to 82°C. This sensor can be used as an automobile control touch-sensor pad instead of conventional capacitive touch pads because it is robust against high temperature. We detail the sensor's basic features.

This essay analyzes Barbara Hammer's 1974 experimental nonfiction film Jane Brakhage. Both an homage and a rebuttal to the many films of Jane Brakhage made by her husband, Stan Brakhage, Hammer's film gives Jane the voice she never had in Stan's work. The article contextualizes Jane Brakhage's production at a moment when competing strands of feminist thought took different approaches to the fraught topic of nature. Hammer's films were criticized as essentialist by feminists in the 1980s, but this essay argues that Jane Brakhage complicates that reading of Hammer's work. The film documents Jane's creative life in the mountains, but critiques the limitations of her role as a heterosexual wife and mother. By locating this short film within a larger genealogy of feminist and environmental thought, we can better appreciate the extent to which Hammer's films explore the feminist and queer potential of nature.
