Sound externalization, or the perception that a sound source is outside of the head, is an
intriguing phenomenon that has long interested psychoacousticians. While previous reviews …

For the realization of auditory augmented reality (AAR), it is important that the room
acoustical properties of the virtual elements are perceived in agreement with the acoustics of …

Telemeetings such as audiovisual conferences or virtual meetings play an increasingly
important role in our professional and private lives. For that reason, system developers and …

Spatial audio has been studied for several decades, but has seen much renewed interest
recently due to advances in both software and hardware for capture and playback, and the …

The spatial decomposition method (SDM) can be used to parameterize and reproduce a
sound field based on measured multichannel room impulse responses (RIRs). In this paper …

Featured Application In Auditory Augmented Reality (AAR), the real room is enriched by
virtual audio objects. Position-dynamic binaural synthesis is used to auralize the audio …

Binaural rendering of Ambisonics signals is a common way to reproduce spatial audio
content. Processing Ambisonics signals at low spatial orders is desirable in order to reduce …

An individualised head-related transfer function (HRTF) is very important for creating
realistic virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) environments. However, acoustically …

In order to make full use of their potential to replace experiments in real rooms, auralizations
must be as realistic as possible. Recently, it has been shown that for speech, head-tracked …

Reverberation is essential for the realistic auralisation of enclosed spaces. However, it can
be computationally expensive to render with high fidelity and, in practice, simplified models …
