Abstract

Communicating the impact of decisions in the management of environmental noise presents several significant challenges, requiring non-experts to rationalize changes to the environment through the comparison of metrics that can be difficult to relate to tangible outcomes. Virtual reality technologies provide a platform for the auralization and visualization of environments, providing the opportunity to experience the impact of changes to the environment through a virtual representation before decisions are made. This paper presents The Virtual Reality Soundscape Evaluation Framework, a set of tools for performing environment evaluation experiments in virtual reality.
