Using sign language, speech, and haptics as communication modalities, a virtual treasure-hunting game serves as an entertainment and educational tool for visually and hearing impaired users. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in human-c ...
The vestibular system provides the brain with sensory signals about three-dimensional head rotations and translations. These signals are important for postural and oculomotor control, as well as for spatial and bodily perception and cognition, and they are ...
The aim of the invention is to provide inter-channel level differences ICLD related to audio signals for hearing aids. This aim is achieved by a method for computing ICLD from a first and second audio source signals, the first source signal being wired wit ...
Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3 or PZT) ferroelectric ceramics have been widely used in transducers, actuators, and sensors, since they posses high dielectric and piezoelectric properties with a relatively high temperature of operation. Commerciall ...
In pre-hearing mice, vesicle exocytosis at cochlear inner hair cell (IHC) ribbon synapses is triggered by spontaneous Ca2+ spikes. At the onset of hearing, IHC exocytosis is then exclusively driven by graded potentials, and is characterized by higher Ca2+ ...
The primary auditory cortex (PAC) is central to human auditory abilities, yet its location in the brain remains unclear. We measured the two largest tonotopic subfields of PAC (hA1 and hR) using high-resolution functional MRI at 7 T relative to the underly ...
It is of prime importance in everyday human life to cope with and respond appropriately to events that are not foreseen by prior experience. Machines to a large extent lack the ability to respond appropriately to such inputs. An important class of unexpect ...
We describe the case of a 33-year-old man with complex partial seizures characterized by the feeling of being projected outside his body, including dissociation of "mind and self from body" (disembodiment), followed by vestibular vertigo due to right front ...
Sound field reproduction using Wave Field Synthesis has been so far limited to the positioning of virtual sources and listeners in the horizontal plane only although the underlying formulation (Kirchhoff-Helmholtz) describes the reproduction of 3 dimension ...

The promotion of tubular structures in bridge construction is a meaningful goal since these are aesthetic, lead to structurally efficient systems as well as sustainable ones. Good fatigue design of the tubular superstructure is a key factor to ensure safet ...
