Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of providing target location information via head-coupled visual and spatial audio displays presented in adaptive and non-adaptive configurations. Twelve USAF pilots performed a simulated flight task in which they were instructed to maintain flight parameters while searching for ground and air targets. The integration of visual displays with spatial audio cueing enhanced performance efficiency, especially when targets were most difficult to detect. Several of the interface conditions were also associated with lower ratings of perceived mental workload. The benefits associated with multi-sensory cueing were equivalent in both adaptive and non-adaptive configurations.
