The MPEG-H standard for spatial audio proposes the rendering of multiple auditory objects (up to 16) and ambisonics to create a spatial audio scene. Convolution of these (and their early environmental reflections) with user-specific Head Related Impulse Responses (HRIRs), and a treatment of the late…
A novel version of Békésy audiometry is developed that is suitable for remote administration via an app, and for DSP integration into headphones. To demonstrate the efficacy and usefulness of the approach, experiments were performed with 32 participants with a range of ages and hearing losses. In ex…
Incorporating individualized head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) into a high fidelity sound engine can further improve the perceived quality and realism of binaurally-rendered spatial audio. Traditional methods to measure individual HRTFs tend to be cumbersome, expensive and require physical acc…
Any acoustic sensor disturbs the spatial acoustic field to certain extent, and a recorded field is different from a field that would have existed if a sensor were absent. Recovery of the original (incident) field is a fundamental task in spatial audio. For some sensor geometries, the disturbance of…
