Sound localisation ability of soldiers wearing infantry ACH and PASGT helmets / Angelique A. Scharine... [et. al]
Sumario: A soldier's headgear provides ballistic protection but decreases his ability to accurately localise sound sources. Soldiers performed a sound localisation task with no helmet and while wearing each of two Army helmets. The study confirmed that the ACH had less impact on auditory spatial perception than the PASGT helmet.
