Warwick,Warwickshire,UK -Gizmag, by Ben Coxworth -September 23, 2010: -- Electric vehicles are set to become a common sight on our roads, but one potential problem needs to be addressed – their lack of engine sound... Now researchers at the University of Warwick are experimenting with sounds that could be applied to all EVs – and you could help them... ELVIN is a little green electric van, used to patrol U Warwick’s parking lots. It has been outfitted with an audio system, programmed to make a variety of noises as it’s driven around. The research team will be asking people who see and hear ELVIN (Electric Vehicle with Interactive Noise) to tell them not only how effective the noises are as a warning, but also how annoying... Lead researcher Professor, Paul Jennings, and company have set up on online interactive evaluation, that allows people worldwide to let them know what they think of the little van’s noises...
