Standardization of Binaural Measurement Technique

The importance of binaural hearing for noise valuation

In a project that has been funded by the German Ministery of Research and Technology (BMFT) fundamental questions of noise valuation have been addressed by an interdisciplinary research consortium. The aim of the project was to provide knowledge that will lead to a new, binaural and aurally-adequate measurement technique which can especially be used for the valuation of the effects of noise for...

Simple reaction time for broadband sounds compared to pure tones

Although many studies have explored the relation between reaction time (RT) and loudness, including effects of intensity, frequency, and binaural summation, comparable work on spectral summation is rare. However, most real-world sounds are not pure tones and typically have bandwidths covering several critical bands. Since comparing to a 1-kHz pure tone, the reference tone, is important for loud...

Parametric binaural synthesis: Background, applications and standards

The amount of information present in HRTFs and the required processing capabilities for real-time and interactive binaural rendering have long been a challenge for many applications for binaural rendering. More recently, parametric methods to capture the perceptually-relevant information from HRTFs have been developed. By means of extracting perceptually-relevant attributes from HRTF pairs, bin...

A measurement tool standardization of beliefs in advertising through sport

The purpose of present study was to standardize the measurement tool of beliefs in advertising through sport. Following the permit was taken from the owner of the questionnaire (Pyun, 2006), questionnaire by the three-stage translation method and introductory study performed. Population of the study was all the spectators that attended in the Azadi Stadium, 342 samples were selected random...
