The regulatory framework of the audiovisual sector in Spain can be defined as huge, disperse, and obsolete. The first part of this paper provides an overview of the major challenges of the Spanish audiovisual sector as a result of the convergence of platforms, services and operators. In the second part, we will present an example of self-regulation through the future Code of Best Professional P...

Although pitch is a fundamental attribute of auditory perception, substantial individual differences exist in our ability to perceive differences in pitch. Little is known about how these individual differences in the auditory modality might affect crossmodal processes such as audiovisual perception. In this study, we asked whether individual differences in pitch perception might affect audiovi...

Both auditory and visual information plays an important role for audiovisual speech perception during face-to-face communication. Several behavioral studies have shown that native English speakers and native Japanese speakers behaved differently in audiovisual speech perception. We hypothesized that there would be differences in neural processing between native English speakers and native Japan...

Audiovisual data have gained an enormous and ever-growing popularity in the world wide web. Also a growing number of educational content such as, e.g. lecture recordings or audiovisual learning material can be found recently. But, pinpoint and exhaustive retrieval of audiovisual elearning content in the web is rather difficult as well as automated metadata interchange and integration. We demons...

The role of visual cues in native listeners' perception of speech produced by nonnative speakers has not been extensively studied. Native perception of English sentences produced by native English and Korean speakers in audio-only and audiovisual conditions was examined. Korean speakers were rated as more accented in audiovisual than in the audio-only condition. Visual cues enhanced word intell...

Robust perception requires efficient integration of information from our various senses. Much recent electrophysiology points to neural areas responsive to multisensory stimulation, particularly audiovisual stimulation. However, psychophysical evidence for functional integration of audiovisual motion has been ambiguous. In this study we measure perception of an audiovisual form of biological mo...
