  2. Microwave auditory effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_auditory_effect

    According to Frey, the induced sounds were described as "a buzz, clicking, hiss, or knocking, depending on several transmitter parameters, i.e., pulse width and pulse-repetition rate". By changing transmitter parameters, Frey was able to induce the "perception of severe buffeting of the head, without such apparent vestibular symptoms as ...

    The right ear is particularly special in spiritual traditions. As Stern tells us, "The right side of our body is our masculine side. Here is where logic, action and assertiveness live in the body."

  5. Absolute threshold of hearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_threshold_of_hearing

    This is because 'top-down' influences mean that the subject expects to hear the sound and is, therefore, more motivated with higher levels of concentration. The 'bottom-up' theory explains that unwanted external (from the environment) and internal (e.g., heartbeat) noise results in the subject only responding to the sound if the signal-to-noise ...

  6. Tensor tympani muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor_tympani_muscle

    The tensor tympani acts to damp the noise produced by chewing. When tensed, the muscle pulls the malleus medially, tensing the tympanic membrane and damping vibration in the ear ossicles and thereby reducing the perceived amplitude of sounds. It is not to be confused by the acoustic reflex, but can be activated by the startle reflex.

  7. Click (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Click_(acoustics)

    In sample recording, digital clicks occur when the signal levels of two adjacent audio sections do not match. The abrupt change in gain can be perceived as a click. [5] In electronic music, clicks are used as a musical element, particularly in glitch and noise music, for example in the Clicks & Cuts Series (2000–2010). [6] [7]

  8. Head-related transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-related_transfer_function

    HRTF filtering effect. A head-related transfer function (HRTF) is a response that characterizes how an ear receives a sound from a point in space. As sound strikes the listener, the size and shape of the head, ears, ear canal, density of the head, size and shape of nasal and oral cavities, all transform the sound and affect how it is perceived, boosting some frequencies and attenuating others.

  9. Temporal envelope and fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_envelope_and_fine...

    Changes in the signal envelope can be measured using several different procedures. The presence of noise or reverberation will reduce the modulation depth of a signal, and multiband measurement of the envelope modulation depth of the system output is used in the speech transmission index (STI) to estimate intelligibility.
