Deceiving Audio Design in Augmented Environments : A Systematic Review of Audio Effects in Augmented Reality

Recently, a lot of works show promising directions for audio design in augmented reality (AR). These works are mainly focused on how to improve user experience and make AR more realistic. But even though these improvements seem promising, these new possibilities could also be used as an input for manipulative design. This survey aims to analyze all recent discoveries in audio development regarding AR and argue what kind of “manipulative” effect this could have on the user. It can be concluded that even though there are many works explaining the effects of audio design in AR, very few works point out the risk of harm or manipulation toward the user. Future works could contain more awareness of this problem or maybe even systems to protect the user from any possible manipulation or harm.
