Little research has been performed regarding auditory icons even though auditory icons have great potentials as a strategy for creating informative, intuitively accessible, and unobtrusive interface. Therefore, this study was conducted to design new auditory icons through the iconic mapping for ten most frequently used mobile phone menus, and to show the usability of auditory icons. Two most familiar auditory sounds for each menu were collected and compared to the current button-pressing sound. The results show that the newly designed auditory icons had shorter recognition times, better satisfaction than the current icons. In other words, auditory icons could be an effective interface to provide a redundant feedback along with visual feedbacks in navigating mobile devices.

본 논문은 3차원 가상환경에서 드로잉할 때, 사용자에게 위치 입력에 대한 피드백을 부여하는 효과적인 방법을 설계하고 그 성능을 측정하여, 피드백을 통해 사용자가 올바른 위치를 입력하는데 도움을 줄 수 있는지 확인하고자 한다. 주어진 선 형상을 핸드-헬드 컨트롤러를 이용하여 따라 그리는 실험에서 사용자에게 위치 입력 오차에 대해 세 단계의 시각, 청각, 촉각 피드백을 각각 제공하고, 어떤 피드백이 가장 효과적인지를 분석하였다. 피드백의 형태에 따른 위치 입력 정확도를 분석한 결과, 피드백은 특정 크기 이상의 입력 오류를 크게 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 시각과 촉각 피드백이 청각 피드백보다 효과적이었다.

Objectives : Asymmetrical weight bearing during standing has been identified as a common problem in persons with hemiplegia. This study examined the effect of auditory and visual feedback on symmetric weight bearing with hemiplegia. Method: The intervention program was instituted for 10 min each day with a total of twelve treatment sessions. The machine which was used for this study is the Weight Balancer, OG GIKEN, WB-202, Japan Result: There was a significant improvement of symmetric weight distribution in auditory feedback group whereas the visual feedback group disclosed some improvement but not significantly. There was no significant change in control group. Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that an auditary feedback group can be more effective than visual feedback group or control group in helping the persons with hemiplegia achieve symmetric stance.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the comparison of visual and auditory biofeedback during sit-to-stand training in patients with stroke. METHODS: Thirty-five subjects with chronic stroke were divided into three groups: a visual feedback group (12 subjects), an auditory feedback group (12 subjects) and a control group (11 subjects). All Groups received neurodevelopmental treatment, and sit-to-stand training for 30minutes three times a week for four weeks. During the sit to stand training, the experimental groups received visual feedback and auditory feedback, whereas the control group performed sit-to-stand training without feedback. Five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST), motion analysis and postural sway during sit-to-stand were used to evaluate sit to stand performance ability. In addition, Berg balance scale (BBS) was performed for evaluation of balance function in participants. RESULTS: All groups showed significant increase on FTSST and BBS between pre- and post-intervention. The BBS scores in visual feedback group was significant increase than control group. The motion analysis and postural sway, more improvement was observed in the visual and auditory feedback groups compared with the control group. The only visual feedback group was a better performance of midline excursion during sit-to-stand than control group. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that sit-to-stand training using a biofeedback may help to improve sit to stand performance and balance ability of stroke patients.

최근 차량 내 정보 제공 장비를 통한 에코 드라이빙의 향상이 연료 효율과 안전 운전을 증가시킬 수 있다는 연구들이 보고되고 있다. 그러나 정보의 제공으로 인하여 야기될 수 있는 인지적 부하에 대한 관심은 상대적으로 적은 편이다. 본 연구는 에코 드라이빙을 향상시킴과 동시에 운전자의 운전부하를 최소화 할 수 있는 차량 내 정보 제공 장비의 특성을 확인하기 위해 두(시각vs.시청각) 피드백의 상대적인 효과 차이와 운전 중 상황의 복잡성 수준에 따른 정보 제공방식의 차이가 운전 행동과 운전부하에 미치는 효과를 알아보았다. 본 실험에는 총 38명의 운전자가 참가하였다. 연구 결과, 시각-청각 피드백의 제공이 시각적 피드백을 제공하는 조건에 비하여 에코 드라이빙을 더 향상시키며, 운전부하를 최소화하였다.

본 연구에서는 로드셀 센서를 활용하여 편바미 환자의 환측에 부하되는 체중부하에 따른 청각적 피드백을 적용한 대칭 보행유도와 보행패턴 분석이 가능한 무선 보행훈련 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 개발된 시스템의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 정상인군 및 편마비군 대상자에게 수행한 임상실험을 진행하였으며, 각 대상군마다 피드백 적용 후 보행 속도와 체중 부하량, 그리고 보행 시 입각기비율과 분속수가 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 연구 결과를 토대로 편마비 환자 뿐만 아니라 대칭적 체중부하가 요구되는 다양한 하지 질환자들에 대한 임상실험을 확대하고 장기간 훈련의 효과를 관찰한다면, 본 연구에서 개발된 청각적 대칭 체중부하 피드백 보행 시스템은 다양한 패턴 분석과 함께 보행 향상을 위한 기기 적용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study was to find a more effective balance training method. The subjects of this study were 14 children with cerebral palsy (7 males, 7 females) being treated at Seran Pediatric Developmental Research Center in Taegu. Two groups of children with cerebral palsy (everyday trained group, every-other-day trained group) were evaluated with visual & auditory feedback. Evaluation and training device was Balance Performance Monitor (BPM) Dataprint Software Version 5.3. There was statistically significant difference of the balance score between the pre-and the post-training in both group (p<.05), but there was no difference of the balance score between two groups (p<.05). In conclusion, it is likely that the visual and auditory feedback in children with cerebral palsy was effective in improving standing balance, but there was no difference between everyday trained group and every-other-day trained group.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of providing visual feedback and auditory stimulation using a robotic device on balance and gait abilities in stroke patients. Design: Randomized controlled pilot trial. Methods: Fifteen subjects were randomly divided into three groups where five subjects were in the visual feedback robotic device assist gait training (VRGT) group, five subjects in the auditory stimulation robotic device assist gait training (ARGT) group, and five subjects in the control group. Subjects received visual feedback and auditory stimulation while undergoing robotic gait training for 45 minutes, three times a week for 2 weeks, and all subjects had undergone general physical therapy for 30 minutes, five times a week for 2 weeks. All subjects were assessed with the Berg balance scale (BBS), timed up and go (TUG) test, and 10-meter walking test (10MWT) pre- and post-intervention. Results: All subjects showed that BBS, TUG test, and 10MWT scores significantly improved post-intervention (p<0.05), and the control group also had significantly improved post-treatment (p<0.05). The VRGT and the ARGT showed significant improvements in BBS, TUG, and 10MWT scores compared with the control group (p<0.05). The VRGT group showed a significant improvement in BBS, TUG, and 10MWT scores compared with the control group (p<0.05). In addition, it has been confirmed that VRGT had significantly improved in BBS, TUG test, and 10MWT scores compared with the auditory stimulation and control group (p<0.05). Conclusions: The results of this study showed improved balance and gait abilities after VRGT and ARGT groups compared with general physical therapy and was found to be effective in enhancing the functional activity of persons affected with stroke.

Biofeedback devices have been used successfully to improve head control and symmetrical walking in cerebral palsied children. Biofeedback of postural sway was investigated as a therapeutic technique to reduce postural abnormality in 24 selected children with cerebral palsy. Subjects were evaluated their weight distribution of both sides during their standing before and after the visual and auditory feedback training. The effectiveness of biofeedback was compared to conventional physical therapy practices in reestabilishing symmetrical standing in cerebral palsied children. Our study found biofeedback was effective in training symmetrical standing posture.

The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the effect of auditory feedback on fundamental frequencies in prelingulally deaf children. Participants totaled three groups of sixty children: deaf children with cochlear implantation(CI), deaf children with hearing aids (HA), and children with normal hearing(NH). Fundamental frequencies were measured during sustained phonation of /a/. There were statistically significant differences of fundamental frequencies across the groups(p<.01). In post hoc analysis, HA and NH group showed statistically significant differences, but CI group didn't. In correlation analysis between Fo and the chronological age, there were significant negative tendencies in CI and NH group, but not in HA group. The characteristics of fundamental frequencies in CI group were found similar to NH group than HA group in this study. This could be understood as the effect of relatively sufficient auditory feedback after cochlear implantation.
