Acoustic Rendering as Support for Sustained Attention during Biomedical Procedures

Biomedical procedures of long duration cause mental fatigue and attention deficit. We investigated using sound as a means to support sustained attention during prolonged procedures and analysis. In this paper we present tactical audio as support for precise manual positioning of a surgical instrument, and introduce acoustic rendering as an additional information channel and/or warning signal in EEG analysis.
