Abstract
A psychoacoustic auditory display for navigation in two-dimensional
space is presented. The auditory display is examined
in an experiment with novice users. Trajectory analysis indicates
that users were able to a) accurately find sonified targets b) analyze
the sonification axis-by-axis c) integrate the sonified dimensions to
approach the target on the shortest path. Techniques developed in
this work appear to work equally well with three-dimensional coordinates.
