Audiovisual time-to-collision estimation for accelerating vehicles: The acoustic signature of electric vehicles impairs pedestrians' judgments

M Wessels, S Kröling, D Oberfeld - … research part F: traffic psychology and …, 2022 - Elsevier
To avoid collisions, pedestrians intending to cross a road need to accurately estimate the
time-to-collision (TTC) of an approaching vehicle. For TTC estimation, auditory information …

Low-level integration of auditory and visual motion signals requires spatial co-localisation

GF Meyer, SM Wuerger, F Röhrbein… - Experimental Brain …, 2005 - Springer
It is well known that the detection thresholds for stationary auditory and visual signals are
lower if the signals are presented bimodally rather than unimodally, provided the signals …

Auditory information improves time-to-collision estimation for accelerating vehicles

M Wessels, C Zähme, D Oberfeld - Current Psychology, 2023 - Springer
To cross a road safely, pedestrians estimate the time remaining until an approaching vehicle
arrives at their location (time-to-collision, TTC). For visually presented accelerated objects …

Congruency effects between auditory and tactile motion: extending the phenomenon of cross-modal dynamic capture

S Soto-Faraco, C Spence, A Kingstone - Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral …, 2004 - Springer
Behavioral studies of multisensory integration in motion perception have focused on the
particular case of visual and auditory signals. Here, we addressed a new case: audition and …

Visual motion interferes with tactile motion perception

JC Craig - Perception, 2006 - journals.sagepub.com
Previous studies have demonstrated that visual apparent motion can alter the judgment of
auditory apparent motion. We investigated the effect of visual apparent motion on judgments …

Using hearing and vision for motion prediction, motion perception, and localization.

Crossmodal interactions and multisensory integration in the perception of audio-visual motion—A free-field study

K Schmiedchen, C Freigang, I Nitsche, R Rübsamen - Brain research, 2012 - Elsevier

the interplay between the visual and the auditory modality in peripheral motion perception is …

Reaction time facilitation for horizontally moving auditory–visual stimuli

NR Harrison, SM Wuerger, GF Meyer - Journal of Vision, 2010 - jov.arvojournals.org
For moving targets, bimodal facilitation of reaction time has been observed for motion in the
depth plane (C. Cappe, G. Thut, B. Romei, & MM Murray, 2009), but it is unclear whether …

Discriminating audiovisual speed: optimal integration of speed defaults to probability summation when component reliabilities diverge

A Bentvelzen, J Leung, D Alais - Perception, 2009 - journals.sagepub.com
We investigated audiovisual speed perception to test the maximum-likelihood-estimation

Oscillatory mechanisms underlying the enhancement of visual motion perception by multisensory congruency

S Gleiss, C Kayser - Neuropsychologia, 2014 - Elsevier
Multisensory interactions shape every day perception and stimuli in one modality can
enhance perception in another even when not being directly task relevant. While the …
