Acoustic testing using commercial sound system components is becoming more popular as a cost effective way of generating the required environment both in and out of a reverberant chamber. This paper will present the development of such a sound system that uses a state-of-the-art random vibration controller to perform closed-loop control in the reverberant chamber at Sandia National Laboratories. Test data will be presented that demonstrates narrow-band controlability, performance and some limitations of commercial sound generation equipment in a reverberant chamber.

For the effective use of modern tools, the inherent visuo-motor transformation needs to be mastered. The successful adjustment to and learning of these transformations crucially depends on practice conditions, particularly on the type of visual feedback during practice. Here, a review about empirical research exploring the influence of continuous and terminal visual feedback during practice on the mastery of visuo-motor transformations is provided. Two studies investigating the impact of the type of visual feedback on either direction-dependent visuo-motor gains or the complex visuo-motor transformation of a virtual two-sided lever are presented in more detail. The findings of these studies indicate that the continuous availability of visual feedback supports performance when closed-loop control is possible, but impairs performance when visual input is no longer available. Different approaches to explain these performance differences due to the type of visual feedback during practice are considered. For example, these differences could reflect a process of re-optimization of motor planning in a novel environment or represent effects of the specificity of practice. Furthermore, differences in the allocation of attention during movements with terminal and continuous visual feedback could account for the observed differences.
