Recent developments in low cost VR displays have led to a resurgence of research into binaural 3-D audio. Whilst a good 3-D audio experience can be given using the state of the art technologies, there are still many problems to be solved. Read more
Auralisation is the audio equivalent of visualisation – the accurate rendering of an acoustic environment such that the listener perceives the result as being natural or real. Read more
Archaeological human remains (both skeletonised and mummified) are frequently studied using morphological and imaging techniques such as photography, 3D laser scanning and CT scanning. Read more
