Chapter 6 Conclusion
  
6.1. Simulation System
 
 We developed a system that computes independent physical    
factors in a sound space from building drawings at the design stage and can    
actually estimate the factors at each seat.
   
6.2. Diagnostic System for Sound Field in the Room
 We built a system to diagnose the sound field at each seat in    
the actual building and a model based on a functional model of the human sense    
of hearing (cerebral system). We clarified the usefulness of the system by    
comparing the results 6.1 obtained at the design stage with those from    
our actual diagnosis.
   
6.3. Seat Selection System
 We built a seat selection system to find the optimum location    
for each auditory sense and developed a system that indicates the range of seats    
for which different individuals will have the highest preference.
   
6.4. Diagnostic System for Environmental Noise
 A system for measuring temporal and spatial factors in a    
noise environment was developed. This provided additional information about the    
physical characteristics of noise sources, suggesting its usefulness for making    
a mental evaluation based on distinctions between noise sources.
   
 This development should lead to a better fundamental    
understanding of 1) the processes for designing and evaluating indoor sound    
fields and 2) individual sensitivities - for example the size (loudness) and    
height (a pace) of the sound, three elements of the tone, unpleasantness,    
spatial sense, and individual sensitivity in such cases as a mental time sense.
