The Car Sensing City Soundscape
This is the three-dimensional city and cars playset that produces realistic sounds from people, automobiles, and airplanes that are common to a burgeoning metropolis. Sensors embedded throughout the city create sounds like screeching tires as the police car is rolled along a tight turn, a resonating emergency siren when the fire truck leaves the firehouse, or a roaring jet engine as the plane lifts off from the airport runway. When the airplane lands, an air traffic controller announces “flight 4-1-niner proceed to gate one” and when the police car pulls up to the coffee shop drive thru the officer says, “I’d like one doughnut and two coffees.”
