AUDICTIVE CONFERENCE 2023 With recent developments in hardware- and software technologies, audiovisual virtual reality (VR) has reached a high level of perceptual plausibility that overcomes the limitations of simple laboratory settings. Applying interactive VR technology is expected to help understand auditory cognition in complex audiovisual scenes that are close to real life, including acoustically adverse situations such as classrooms, open-plan offices, multi-party communication or outdoor scenarios with multiple (and moving) sound sources. In particular, VR enables controlled research on how acoustic and visual components and further contextual factors affect the ability to interact with the scene, e.g. freely moving in it. To best integrate research in auditory cognition and VR, it is required that aspects from the three scientific disciplines of acoustics, cognitive psychology, and virtual reality/computer science are addressed. The cooperation between researchers from these fields allows synergetic effects which cannot be achieved by a single discipline. The AUDICTIVE conference targets fundamental research across the three disciplines and addressing the three research priorities (a) "auditory cognition," (b) "interactive audiovisual virtual environments," and (c) "quality evaluation methods," the latter being located at the interface between (a) and (b). We invite submissions to the conference that are original proposals and contribute to fundamental research and interdisciplinary findings. This conference brings together researchers from different fields of acoustics, cognitive psychology, and virtual reality while also extending a warm welcome to related presentations coming from other fields. The theme of the conference can be addressed in three interrelated subthemes:

June 2023 Conference @ SuperC, RWTH Aachen University REGISTRATION AND FEE The conference is free of charge and includes refreshments during the day and the conference dinner. However, a small contribution towards the conference dinner has to be paid in the amount of € 20. In order for an accepted submission to be included in the conference program and proceedings, at least one of the submissions’ authors has to register and present the poster at the conference.Further
