Abenzi bezixhobo bakholelwa ukuba iichimes ezingcono nezingcono, izilumkiso, kunye neejingles zenza abathengi bonwabe.Ngaba banyanisile?

wagquma ingonyama yeMGM.I-NBC's iconic chimes.I-C-major chord efana nothixo yokuqalisa ikhompyutha ye-Apple.Iinkampani kudala zisebenzisa isandi ukwahlula iibrendi zazo kunye nokwenza imvakalelo yokuqhelana, kunye nokuthanda iimveliso zabo.UMicrosoft uye wade wacofa intsomi yesandi se-ambient uBrian Eno ukuze afumane inqaku lesibini lesibini le-Windows 95, i-ripple eneenkwenkwezi elandelwa yi-echo ephelayo.Noko ke, mva nje, izandi ziye zanda zaza zaphucuka ngakumbi.IAmazon, uGoogle, kunye neApple zibaleka ukuba zilawule intengiso yesithethi esihlakaniphileyo kunye nabancedisi belizwi labo.Kodwa isixhobo akuyomfuneko ukuthetha ukuze siviwe.
Abasekho oomatshini basekhaya abasoloko bekhala okanye baqhwanyaza okanye baqhwanyaze, njengoko bekunjalo kwixesha elidluleyo xa ezo zilumkiso zazibonisa nje ukuba iimpahla zomile okanye ikofu ibisenziwa.Ngoku oomatshini badlala iziqwengana zomculo.Ukukhangela ukukhatshwa okulungiselelwe ngakumbi, iinkampani ziye zaguqukela kwiingcali ezinje ngo-Audrey Arbeeny, i-CEO ye-Audiobrain, equlunqa izaziso zezixhobo kunye noomatshini, phakathi kwezinye izinto ezininzi zokubeka uphawu lomsindo.Ukuba uvile iipong zokuqalisa ze-IBM ThinkPad okanye umbuliso osebezayo weXbox 360, uyawazi umsebenzi wakhe.“Asiyenzi ngxolo,” watsho kum u-Arbeeny."Senza amava apheleleyo azisa impilo engcono."
Unokuthandabuza ukuba i-jingle ye-elektroniki, nokuba iphelele kangakanani, inokwenza ukuba izitya zibe yinto eqinisekisa ubomi-okanye enye inokukubopha, ngokweemvakalelo, kwi-dishwasher yakho.Kodwa iinkampani zibheja ngenye indlela, kwaye hayi ngokupheleleyo ngaphandle kwesizathu.
Abantu bebesoloko bexhomekeke kwisandi ukutolika izivuseleli.I-crackle efanelekileyo luphawu oluqinisekileyo lokuba iinkuni zivutha kakuhle;imfiso yokupheka inyama inokuba ngamava omsindo ophawulweyo.Oomatshini bedijithali banikezela ngezabo iimpawu zokumamela: Iiwotshi ziphawulwe;izivalo zekhamera zicofa.Ingxolo isenokuba ibingengabom, kodwa basazisa ukuba izinto ziyasebenza.
Umzekelo wokuqala wesixhobo esinxibelelana nedatha ngesandi yayiyikhawunta ye-Geiger.Yaqanjwa ngo-1908 ukulinganisa imitha ye-ionizing, yenza i-audible snap ukubonakalisa ubukho bealpha, beta, okanye amasuntswana egamma.(Ababukeli beChernobyl yeHBO baya kusiqonda isizathu sokuba oku kuluncedo: Umntu osebenzisa isixhobo unokubona izinto ezisingqongileyo ngaxeshanye ukuze abone iimpawu zokusasazeka kwemitha.) Kumashumi eminyaka kamva, umphandi weLawrence Livermore National Laboratory ehlola ujongano lomatshini wenza ukuba lidume igama lezandi ezenza njenge iinqanawa zolwazi oluphawuleka ngokulula: earcon.Njengomfanekiso, kodwa i-aural endaweni yokubonwayo.
