  • (20) In the alternative (ABI-constant) method, intensity at the two ears was varied symmetrically about a constant base intensity, in a manner roughly approximating the pattern of changes that occur when a free-field stimulus is moved in azimuth from the median sagittal plane.

Projection


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of throwing or shooting forward.
  • (n.) A jutting out; also, a part jutting out, as of a building; an extension beyond something else.
  • (n.) The act of scheming or planning; also, that which is planned; contrivance; design; plan.
  • (n.) The representation of something; delineation; plan; especially, the representation of any object on a perspective plane, or such a delineation as would result were the chief points of the object thrown forward upon the plane, each in the direction of a line drawn through it from a given point of sight, or central point; as, the projection of a sphere. The several kinds of projection differ according to the assumed point of sight and plane of projection in each.
  • (n.) Any method of representing the surface of the earth upon a plane.
