Enabling humans to hear the direction of sounds underwater - Experiments and preliminary results

Sound localization by the human auditory system is known to be ineffective underwater. In a research study at the Acoustic Research Laboratory, we introduce additional directional cues from ultra-sonic frequency components. This enables us to work with smaller wavelengths and build simple, small, di...
