The role of spectral composition of sounds on the localization of sound sources by cats

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2013
Sound localization along the azimuthal dimension depends on interaural time and level disparities, whereas localization in elevation depends on broadband power spectra resulting from the filtering properties of the head and pinnae. We trained cats with their heads unrestrained, using operant conditioning to indicate the apparent locations of sounds ...

Testing and Simulation of Multilayer Polyvinylidene Fluoride‐Based Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The study considers the use of polymer/dielectric‐based multilayers piezoelectric Energy Harvesters (EH) to produce an output voltage and current, by exploiting the mechanical energy provided by human organs movements. In particular, the heart motion is considered from the kinematic viewpoint, and a multiphysics theoretical model is developed to assess

Models of binaural hearing for sound lateralisation and localisation

open access: yes, 2007
The current study suggests two models of binaural hearing, which aim to make predictions for inside- and outside-head localisation of a single sound source in the horizontal plane.

Sound source localization of flow around circular cylinder by a virtual microphone array technique

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
Sound source localization technology is used to study the noise mechanism generated by flow around a circular cylinder. Detached-eddy simulation is performed to compute the flow field and the far-field noise is calculated with the Ffowcs Williams and ...

Subjective evaluation of an emerging theory of low-frequency sound source localization in closed acoustic spaces

open access: yes, 2014
An earlier reported theory of low-frequency sound-source localization within closed acoustic spaces proposed that virtual image acuity is strongly dependent on sufficient inter-arrival time between a direct sound and its first reflection.

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

An AI‐Enabled All‐In‐One Visual, Proximity, and Tactile Perception Multimodal Sensor

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Targeting integrated multimodal perception of robots, an AI‐enabled all‐in‐one multimodal sensor is proposed. This sensor is capable of perceiving three types of modalities, including vision, proximity, and tactility. By toggling an ultraviolet light and adjusting the camera focus, it switches smoothly between multiple perceptual modalities, enabling ...
