The use of virtual reality (VR) has seen significant recent growth and presents opportunities
for use in many domain areas. The use of head-mounted displays (HMDs) also presents …

There is increasing effort to characterize the soundscapes around us so that we can design
more compelling and immersive experiences. This review paper focuses on the challenges …

In recent years, immersion has become a frequently emphasized factor in the
geovisualization research agenda. A principal reason for this growing interest is the …

This chapter concerns concepts of adaption in a binaural audio context (ie headphone-
based three-dimensional audio rendering and associated spatial hearing aspects) …

Objectives: We assessed if spatial hearing training improves sound localization in bilateral
cochlear implant (BCI) users and whether its benefits can generalize to untrained sound …

Localising sounds means having the ability to process auditory cues deriving from the
interplay among sound waves, the head and the ears. When auditory cues change because …

Sound localization is essential to perceive the surrounding world and to interact with objects.
This ability can be learned across time, and multisensory and motor cues play a crucial role …

When localising sounds in space the brain relies on internal models that specify the
correspondence between the auditory input reaching the ears, initial head-position and …

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a virtual reality-based
spatial hearing training protocol in bilateral cochlear implant (CI) users and to provide pilot …

Children with complex communication needs often have multiple disabilities including visual
impairments that impact their ability to interact with aided augmentative and alternative …
