Research Abstract |
In this research project, various parameter-mapping sonification designs were empirically examined to find practical guiding principles for developing effective auditory displays for a multi-tasking environment where simultaneous processing of information from multiple sources are required. The series of experiments led to the findings on polarity and scaling design for mapping a data stream(s) onto acoustic parameters like amplitude and frequency of sound, which would be applicable to a wide range of auditory display design problems.
