Development of a 3-D Acoustic Orientation System (3-D AOI)

Abstract

Subcontractor (Southwest Research Institute) provides a chronology of the execution of Task 0031, including the process of selecting the Auditory Localization System (ALS) for the 3-D AOl, the process of designing the 3-D AOl and an improved conventional AOl, and the testing of the AOI actually realized. Because of the inability of the ALS vendor to supply software for generating auditory elevation cues until the end of the contract, the 3-D AOl was not evaluated in flight. However, the improved version of the conventional AOI was thoroughly tested in fight, and test data were delivered to the Air Force for analysis....
