THE INFLUENCE OF VISUAL TEXTURE ON THE VISUAL FACILITATION OF AUDITORY LOCALIZATION
… on the variability of responding in an auditory localization task. They hypothesize that the presence of visual texture in the light in conjunction with eye movements makes possible a more precise visual, and hence auditory, localization.</p><p>A series of nine experiments was conducted. …

Development and Human Factors Evaluation of a Portable Auditory Localization Acclimation Training System
Auditory situation awareness (ASA) is essential for safety and survivability in military operations where many of the hazards are not immediately visible. Unfortunately, the Hearing Protection Devices (HPDs) required to operate in these environments can impede auditory localization performance. …

Auditory localization of in-vehicle crash avoidance warnings as a cue to hazard direction
… by an in-vehicle crash avoidance warning device. Auditory localization of the warning sound was investigated as a means of indicating hazard locations relative to the vehicle. Four dependent variables were measured— response time, decision time, accuracy, and azimuth—to assess the speed and …

Evaluation of an Auditory Localization Training System for Use in Portable Configurations: Variables, Metrics, and Protocol
… Service Members these devices can also obscure auditory situation awareness cues. Tactical Communication and Protective Systems (TCAPS) can restore critical cues through electronic circuitry with varying effects on localization. Evidenced by past research, sound localization accuracy can improve …

An In-Field Experiment on the Effects of Hearing Protection/Enhancement Devices and Military Vehicle Noise on Auditory Localization of a Gunshot in Azimuth
… A research study was conducted to evaluate localization of suprathreshold gunshot's report (from blank ammunition) with one passive (3M's Single-Ended Combat Arms earplug) and three electronic level-dependent HPEDs (Peltor's Com-Tac II electronic earmuffs and Etymotic's EB 1 and EB 15 …

Evaluation of Military Hearing Protection Devices in a Simulated Aircraft Carrier Soundscape
Auditory situation awareness, including the ability to localize sound sources rapidly and accurately, is essential for military personnel operating in complex, high-risk environments. Effective auditory localization enables service members to detect threats, maintain spatial orientation, and …

VISUAL LOCALIZATION ACCURACY DETERMINES THE BIAS OF AUDITORY TARGETS IN AZIMUTH AND DEPTH
… in depth. By increasing the saliency of the auditory and visual signals from a previous experiment, the current study was able to produce more accurate depth discrimination. Visual localization error was smaller than that of auditory localization error in both azimuth and depth, and visual …

Effetti dell'integrazione visuo-acustica in pazienti con disturbo di campo visivo
… have a different, immediate effect on localization behaviour. Patients had to localize modality-specific stimuli (visual or auditory), cross-modal stimulus pairs (visual-auditory) and within-modal stimulus pairs (visual-visual). Results showed that cross-modal stimuli evoked a greater …

THE ROLE OF THE CAT’S ANTERIOR ECTOSYLVIAN CORTEX IN
… also plays a role in orientation to unisensory auditory stimuli is not yet clear. Some studies have shown that AES deactivation does not produce unisensory (visual or auditory) orientation deficits, consistent with physiological studies in the superior colliculus. More recently, however, AES …
