Timing sight and sound

Sight and sound out of synch: Fragmentation and renormalisation of audiovisual integration and subjective timing

The sight and sound of a person speaking or a ball bouncing may seem simultaneous, but their corresponding neural signals are spread out over time as they arrive at different multisensory brain sites. How subjective timing relates to such neural timing remains a fundamental neuroscientific and philosophical puzzle. A dominant assumption is that temporal coherence is achieved by sensory resynchr...

Non - Line - of - Sight Sound Localization Using a Single Microphone

This paper presents an acoustic non-line-of-sight localization technique that uses a single microphone and assumes only a single diffraction in the first-arrival sound. Knowing a map of the environment of interests, the proposed technique considers the frequency, time and power profiles of the received first-arrival sound. The profiles at different positions are estimated by the application of ...

Sight and sound persistently out of synch: stable individual differences in audiovisual synchronisation revealed by implicit measures of lip-voice integration

Are sight and sound out of synch? Signs that they are have been dismissed for over two centuries as an artefact of attentional and response bias, to which traditional subjective methods are prone. To avoid such biases, we measured performance on objective tasks that depend implicitly on achieving good lip-synch. We measured the McGurk effect (in which incongruent lip-voice pairs evoke illusory ...

Running head: INTERACTION OF SIGHT AND SOUND Interaction of Sight and Sound in the Perception and Experience of Musical Performance

Twice upon a time: multiple concurrent temporal recalibrations of audiovisual speech.

Audiovisual timing perception can recalibrate following prolonged exposure to asynchronous auditory and visual inputs. It has been suggested that this might contribute to achieving perceptual synchrony for auditory and visual signals despite differences in physical and neural signal times for sight and sound. However, given that people can be concurrently exposed to multiple audiovisual stimuli...
