Improvements in headphone based 3-D audio using adaptive binaural signal processing and robust head-tracking

University of York School of Physics, Engineering and Technology

Design of immersive binaural surround systems requires an understanding of the perceptual cues for sound source localisation. Any source at a given angle of incidence to the head will create subtle time and level difference cues at the ears and is subject to spectral shaping due to the pinnae. Read more
