A method is proposed that provides an approximation of the acoustic energy decay (energy–
time curve) in room impulse responses generated using the image-source technique. A …

Virtual environment research has focused on interactive image generation and has largely
ignored acoustic modeling for spatialization of sound. Yet, realistic auditory cues can …

A difficult challenge in geometrical acoustic modeling is computing propagation paths from
sound sources to receivers fast enough for interactive applications. This paper describes a …

Realistic modeling of reverberant sound in 3D virtual worlds provides users with important
cues for localizing sound sources and understanding spatial properties of the environment …

We propose a real-time 3D audio rendering pipeline for complex virtual scenes containing
hundreds of moving sound sources. The approach, based on auditory culling and spatial …

We present a spatialized audio rendering system for the use in immersive virtual
environments. The system is optimized for rendering a sufficient number of dynamically …

Explosions generate extreme forces and pressures. They cause massive displacement,
deformation and breakage of nearby objects. The chief damage mechanism of high …

Sound propagation in 3D spaces is governed by similar physical principles as light. As a
result, sound rendering in a 3D virtual environment can benefit from methods developed for …

The generation of spatial audio and audio processing in general using traditional software-
based methods and techniques is computationally prohibitive thereby limiting the number of …

Real-time sound rendering engines often render occlusion and early sound reflection effects
using geometrical techniques such as ray or beam tracing. They can only achieve interactive …
