With public speakers, however, simultaneous auditory content gets superimposed, leading to a confusing and disturbing user experience. In this paper, we present Tangoscope, a tangible audio output device for tabletop interaction. As we augmented headphones with a visual marker-based identification mechanism, with the Tangoscope each user is provided with individual auditory content. To allow for an instruction-free and intuitive usage of the audio device we employed the metaphor of a real stethoscope. A first user study indicated the self-explaining use of the Tangoscope. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591804/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591804/file/978-3-642-23765-2_29_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01591804 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01591804 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-6948
