Prevention of accidents caused by paracusis while walking among individuals with visually impaired

Abstract

Individuals with visual impaired may become disoriented when exposed to a sudden noise, such as the sound of a passing train or a truck, while walking. In particular, exposure to such sounds while walking on a station platform may lead to a fatal accident. We investigated the cause that paracsis produces, and the reflection of the sound from wall surfaces influences hearing how, or this study was intended that we examine it experimentally
