Presented at the 11th International Conference on Auditory Display (ICAD2005)Audio Augmented Reality (AR) design is currently a very difficult task. To develop audio for an AR environment a designer must have technical skills which are unrelated to the design process. The designer should be focusing on the creativity, design, and the logic of the AR rather than the details of the audio. To support the design process, an audio AR designers' tool called Mobile Audio Designs (MAD) Monkey was developed. MAD Monkey was developed using the standard User Centered Design process. The stages of the iterative design process are described here, and the features of the resulting system are discussed. Evaluation of the prototype and plans for further development are also enumerated
