The auditory and visual systems encode target location in fundamentally different ways. Nevertheless, the two modalities must provide a common representation of space to properly identify and localize ...

The ability to estimate distances to sound sources accurately can be crucial for survival. A new study carried out under the direction of Professor Lutz Wiegrebe at the Department of Biology at Ludwig ...

One of the fascinating features of human hearing is its ability to localize sound. While the human ear usually does this with binaural cues, it is, in fact, possible to locate sound direction with ...

Ishikawa, Japan-- The ability to locate sounds in the surrounding environment is a remarkable feature of the human ear. Typically, people with good hearing use both ears to detect and interpret ...

Humans can estimate distances to sound sources better when they move and exploit auditory motion parallax. The ability to estimate distances to sound sources accurately can be crucial for survival. A ...

Sound localization is very popular in law enforcement circles due to its accuracy and ability to quickly separate gunshots from other similar noises. These systems don’t come cheap, and after trying ...
