41
Frequency matching theory
Entire membrane vibrates neuron firing rate matches frequency of vibration Volley firing principle
42
Auditory Alarms
``` Omnidirectional receiver +30 db for salience Do not exceed danger level Startle issue Be informative (directional info?) Minimize confusability Absolute judgement limitations ```

46
Motion sickness
Cue conflict theory The poison position Nausea, vomiting,dizziness, cold sweating, over production of saliva How to prevent: Reduce head and body movement Try to match visual and vestibular info (look outside) Don't drink, lose sleep, get sick, be stressed, be too warm Take meds
