Auditory feedback is the relative loudness level at which telephone users are able to hear their voice. With conventional wired telephones, an audio signal is fed back to the user's own earpiece so they can hear their voice at a predetermined loudness level. This audio signal is sometimes called sidetone. Persons speaking on the phone naturally will tend to adjust the loudness level of their voice to produce a comfortable level of audio in the earpiece. In contrast, wireless mobile cellular telephones do not generally provide feedback of a user's own voice in the receiver. Consequently, they tend to speak at relatively loud levels that are sometimes annoying to those around them. 1, record 1, English, - auditory%20feedback

La entrada de información a un simulador de realidad virtual se puede realizar a través de gestos en la mano (medidos por ejemplo mediante guantes sensibles al movimiento), órdenes verbales e incluso movimiento de los ojos. La salida de información desde la simulación al operador se hace a través de realimentación visual (gráficos que representan un determinado entorno virtual), realimentación auditiva (voz sintetizada, sonido ambiente estereofónico) y realimentación táctil (permitiendo al usuario tocar y sentir partes del entorno diseñado). 2, record 1, Spanish, - retroalimentaci%C3%B3n%20auditiva
