Resumen de Virtual environments with soundscapes: a study on immersion and effects of spatial abilities
Tilanka Chandrasekera, So-Yeon Yoon, Newton D'Souza
In this study we explore how soundscapes can be used as navigational aids in virtual environments and empirically investigate the correlation between immersiveness in virtual environments and spatial abilities when soundscapes are used as landmarks for wayfinding. We attempt to advance knowledge regarding auditory cues contributing to enhanced immersive and navigational experience in virtual environments. Findings are likely to be utilized in effective design for physical environments and wayfinding
