Abstract
As we learn more about how cognition, behaviour, health and welfare of animals can be impacted by sound, understanding how sound environments affect different species has become highly important. However, there is very limited evidence about how these sound environments and their acoustic variables might improve or degrade conditions for most animals. This in-person workshop will explore how innovative technologies can be designed to give animals some control over their sound environment for both research and tentatively, for managed scenarios. Participants will discuss advancements in acoustic technologies, its applications in different animal settings, animal-specific interface design, and practical methods for implementing and evaluating these solutions. The workshop will feature several case studies and discussions to deepen understanding and encourage collaborative solutions. The outputs of this workshop will include designs for technological apparatus, evaluations or experiments that allow animals to control their sound environment.
