About ICAD:
First held in 1992, ICAD is an annual international forum for the exchange of research and practices on the use of sound to convey information. The conference is unique in its primary focus on auditory displays and interdisciplinary issues related to their use. Like its predecessors, ICAD 2014 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or affiliation requirements.
