If you have any friends who are firefighters, give them a whirl on the helmet and see if they get a grasp of it faster. We get extensive training on how to keep our bearings in rooms without any visual input because smoke often manifests a total blackout, and your experiment felt so much like a search drill. It might be interesting to see what it's like when someone uses it that already has an existing framework to build off of

Hello! I have a Ph.D in psychoacoustics, and my research was in perception of space and the interaction between sound and vision senses. The effect that you studied here is an actual technique used by blind people to echolocate, by emitting click sound with their mouths or other objects, and require extensive training. The most famous case was a boy called Ben Underwood, that was able not only to walk without a cane, but do very extraordinary thing, like actually play basketball (and hit the score easily) or walk with his bicycle without any assistance. An MRI while doing this technique showed that he used to process echolocation the same area in the brain that non blind people use for vision. That means that he actually could see throught sound.

"There's a blind person staring at me..."
"How can you tell?"
"I can FEEL Miley Cyrus in my head..."

14:29 goes for a high five, remembers he's blindfolded, pretends to fix hair. Classic.

Stealth aircraftâs do bounce radio waves to avoid detection, which does account for their strange look, but complex curves could do this as well⌠the reason why older ones are faceted is because computer simulations were not advanced enough during their development. Youâre looking at a low poly render irl!

We built up this device in 1996 as a project for high school graduation in Venezuela. It was amazing. I remember that we did a live demo in front of an audience. We used the same principle of echolocation and thus we named our electronic device "Ecolocador", or Ecolocator in English. Our device was very simple with only a couple of ultrasound transducers mounted on glasses, no stereo capabilities, The blind people that were willing to test it were amazed and asked us if we were going to manufacture it in mass, unfortunately we didn't go forward and it was just a high school project However, we gain a science recognition award in a regional high school contest for our invention

8:57 noooo freaking goodness I lost my ability to hear these kinds of high frequencies. I knew it would happen eventually...
Edit - I decided to finally try and make the sounds in audacity myself to try and see if its the video compression and such. I can hear 18khz, but barely hear 19khz.
