This project investigates sound perception in everyday life: How many sounds do we notice and how many do we miss? The participants are equipped with a mobile EEG cap, microphones, and a smartphone. The smartphone runs an app that records the soundscape of the participant as privacy-protecting features. The participants sit in an office and work while they are sporadically presented with tones from different directions. 

Aims of the project

• examine how well we can identify presented sounds with our app
• analyse processing of the presented sounds e.g. via ERPs
• further ideas and hypotheses are welcome
