Thesis Project • 2025

UnityC#MetaSDKHCI Research

Overview

This project investigates the impact of cognitive-level personalization in spatial audio on object localization in Virtual Reality. Using the Meta XR SDK and Unity, we developed an environment to test how specific cues improve sound source localization. The study evaluates cue effectiveness by measuring search time and validating results through integrated in-VR questionnaires, including the NASA-TLX for workload and UEQ-S for user experience.
