Auditory display in patient monitoring – a growing volume

Speaker: Dr. Penelope Sanderson

Abstract

With the emergence of intelligent integrated clinical information systems, there is more potential than ever for innovative forms of information delivery to healthcare providers. In this presentation I will describe recent research on auditory displays for keeping clinicians informed about their patients’ wellbeing, from revolutionary attempts to craft novel soundscapes through to evolutionary developments in alerting mechanisms. Our research within the Cognitive Engineering Research Laboratory includes the development of auditory displays to support clinicians’ situation awareness in anesthesia, neonatal resuscitation, and acute nursing contexts, using earcons, auditory icons, spearcons, and sonification. New challenges include the design of auditory alerts for AI-based clinical early warning scores. Although much research on auditory displays in healthcare has focused on the efficacy of the sounds themselves, a systems perspective will be needed for the successful integration of informative sound into present and future clinical contexts.

Bio

Penelope Sanderson is Professor of Cognitive Engineering and Human Factors at The University of Queensland, where she has appointments in the Schools of Psychology, Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, and Clinical Medicine. Most of her current research focuses on the healthcare domain, where in recent and current work she investigates clinical teamwork, the impact of workplace interruptions and distractions, and the potential uses of wearable, vibrotactile, and auditory displays.

Bela: an open-source embedded platform for ultra-low-latency interactive audio

Speaker: Dr. Andrew McPherson

Abstract

Humans are very sensitive to small amounts of latency (delay) between action and sound. Digital audio systems often suffer from excessive latency and low richness of interaction. In this talk I will introduce Bela, an open-source embedded hardware platform for creating highly responsive interactive audio systems, which achieves an order of magnitude improvement in audio latency compared to conventional systems. I will cover its technical architecture, its ecosystem of community resources, and example projects made with Bela.

Bio

Andrew McPherson leads the Augmented Instruments Laboratory, part of the Centre for Digital Music at the Queen Mary University of London. His research focuses on digital musical instruments, performer-instrument interaction and embedded hardware systems.
