Audiodome
The Cognitive Neuroscience Research Facility at WIRB has a large sound attenuation room that houses a specialized auditory stimulus presentation system (only a few in the world), referred to as the “Audiodome”. This 91 speaker spherical array (+ 8 sub-woofer speakers) is capable of reproducing highly realistic virtual “soundscapes”, such as a busy restaurant or noisy city street, for the purposes of investigating how participants process sound information in various settings (see ). This speaker array has the flexibility to add 8 additional speakers, allowing for the creation of high-density zones, often used in auditory localization experiments. This system is capable of being used in combination with other research equipment, such as virtual reality and fNIRS.
