Designing Sounds for Electric Vehicles: A Blend of Nature and Intuition
This chapter explores the process of creating sound designs for electric vehicles, focusing on the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) and the lock chirp sound. It discusses the blending of nature sounds, such as water and wind recordings, to create a unique AVAS sound that pays homage to the relationship between humans and nature. The chapter also highlights the intuitive design behind the lock chirp sound, comparing it to a bird call and emphasizing its effectiveness in cutting through background noise.
