A kite control bar with embedded sensors and actuators communicates instructions through voice or tactile cues to explore facilitating communication for control guidance. Tactile cues were shown to be productive in changing behavior. Voice, however, communicated planning models and directional guidance better than tactile cues. Still, voice may negatively impact experience. The experiments highlight the need for better ways for communication tools to support mental models. %G English %Z TC 13 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01610782/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01610782/file/346948_1_En_4_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01610782 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01610782 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC13 %~ IFIP-INTERACT %~ IFIP-LNCS-9299
