“…interfaces that distribute information across various sensory modalities including vision, audition and touch. Multimodal interfaces have also been shown to support timesharing and attention management (Hameed, Ferris, Jayaraman, & Sarter, 2009;Ho, Nikolic, & Sarter, 2001) in various domains including driving (Ho, Tan, & Spence, 2005;Tilak et al, 2008) and medicine (Seagull, Wickens, & Loeb, 2001). One important step that is often overlooked in multimodal studies is crossmodal matching, i.e.…”

A limited number of multimodal studies conduct crossmodal matching – a step to ensure cues are perceived to be of equal intensity across sensory modalities. The majority of work on crossmodal matching was conducted by Stevens from the 1950-1960’s, but there has been limited work on the development of a reliable crossmodal matching method to be used in more recent multimodal studies. A few studies have contributed to this goal; however, there has been little consideration towards identifying which parameters map between each modality and whether age significantly contributes to the between-subject variability. The goal of the current study is to investigate how auditory pitch and age affects crossmodal matching and the variability in the matches made. The findings of this study revealed that when auditory pitch is varied, there is a significant effect of age, especially when participants were able to control the intensity of the auditory modality. Additionally, there was significant variability between different modality combinations across both age groups. The findings demonstrate the importance of considering the appropriate parameters to be used across different sensory modalities and the effect age has on crossmodal matching.

We investigate the mechanisms of attentional orienting in a 360degree virtual environments. Through the use of Posner's paradigm, we study the effects of different attentional guidance techniques designed to improve information processing. The most efficient technique will be applied to a procedure learning tool in virtual reality and a remote air traffic control tower. The eye-tracker allows us to explore the differential effects of overt and covert orienting, to estimate the effectiveness of visual research and to use it as a technique for interaction in virtual reality.

The Posner cueing task is a classic experimental paradigm in cognitive science for measuring visual attention orienting abilities. Recently, it was suggested that this paradigm can be adapted in virtual reality (e.g. in an immersive and ecological environment) to evaluate the effectiveness of perceptual stimuli in directing attention and by extension to study the underlying cognitive processes. In this study, auditory and visual endogenous cue were used to voluntary orient attention at 360 • . Two groups of participants (N=33 and N=28) equipped with a virtual reality headset including integrated eye-tracking performed a modified version of the Posner cueing task in a 360 • immersive environment. In this task, participants had to destroy space objects, as quickly as possible, through eye interaction. Predictive visual or auditory informed participants about target location. The results show that these endogenous cues significantly improve performance even if the object to be destroyed occurred outside the visual field or through a mirror. This experiment provides one of the first demonstrations that attentional orienting mechanism can improve performances of visual information processing in an immersive and ecological 360 • environment where information can appear in rear space.
