Sound Spectrum Influences Auditory Distance Perception of Sound Sources Located in a Room Environment [PDF]
Previous studies on the effect of spectral content on auditory distance perception (ADP) focused on the physically measurable cues occurring either in the near field (low-pass filtering due to head diffraction) or when the sound travels distances >15 ...

The visual perception of size and distance [PDF]
Abstract The perception of absolute distance has been assumed to be important in the perception of the size of objects and the depth between them. A different hypothesis is proposed. It is asserted that perceived relative size and distance are the primary psychological phenomena with perceived absolute distance derived from the perceptual summing of ...

The independence of size perception and distance perception [PDF]
Research on distance perception has focused on environmental sources of information, which have been well documented; in contrast, size perception research has focused on familiarity or has relied on distance information. An analysis of these two parallel bodies of work reveals their lack of equivalence.

Perception of Tactile Distance on the Back [PDF]
The perceived distance between two touches is anisotropic on many parts of the body. Generally, tactile distances oriented across body width are perceived as larger than distances oriented along body length, though the magnitude of such biases differs substantially across the body. In this study, we investigated tactile distance perception on the back.

Measuring egocentric distance perception in virtual reality: Influence of methodologies, locomotion and translation gains. [PDF]
Virtual reality has become a popular means to study human behavior in a wide range of settings, including the role of pedestrians in traffic research. To understand distance perception in virtual environments is thereby crucial to the interpretation of ...

Ibn al-Haytham's ground theory of distance perception [PDF]
The 11th-century Arab scholar, Ibn al-Haytham, in his Optics , offers a detailed, rigorous, empirically oriented explanation of distance perception that may be the first essentially modern, scientific theory of distance perception.

Perception of vibrotactile distance on the back [PDF]
AbstractVibrotactile displays worn on the back can be used as sensory substitution device. Often vibrotactile stimulation is chosen because vibration motors are easy to incorporate and relatively cheap. When designing such displays knowledge about vibrotactile perception on the back is crucial.

Learning and exposure affect environmental perception less than evolutionary navigation costs. [PDF]
Most behaviors are conditional upon successful navigation of the environment, which depends upon distance perception learned over repeated trials. Unfortunately, we understand little about how learning affects distance perception-especially in the most ...

Effects of virtual acoustics on dynamic auditory distance perception [PDF]
Sound propagation encompasses various acoustic phenomena including reverberation. Current virtual acoustic methods, ranging from parametric filters to physically-accurate solvers, can simulate reverberation with varying degrees of fidelity.

No Correlation between Distorted Body Representations Underlying Tactile Distance Perception and Position Sense. [PDF]
Both tactile distance perception and position sense are believed to require that immediate afferent signals be referenced to a stored representation of body size and shape (the body model).
