Current alarm standards used in safety critical environments (e.g., medical alarms hospitals) suffer from a myriad of complications with detectability, annoyance, and fatigue affecting the wellbeing patients staff. To large extent, these are based on same simplistic, temporally invariant tones. Here we explore how insights acoustic properties musical triangle can aid detection, reducing overall levels hence annoyance ratings. Two tones used, (1) standard tone similar to those current...
