  2. 1. Towards flexible audio coding

    Author : Renat Vafin; Bastiaan Kleijn; Juergen Herre; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; Audio coding; multistage coding; waveform coding; parametric coding; sinusoidal coding; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : thesis is about audio coding and improving flexibility thereof. Audio coding is used to reduce the bit rate needed to represent audio signals in digital format. When the available bit rate is low, parametric coding methods that use models to describe perceptually-important features of audio signals have shown their efficiency. READ MORE

  4. 2. Causal MMSE Filters for Personal Audio : A Polynomial Matrix Approach

    Author : Simon Widmark; Mikael Sternad; Anders Ahlén; Lars-Johan Brännmark; Fredrik Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Personal Audio; Audio Pre-compensators; Causal Filters; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the study of synthesis of causal filters for generating personal sound zones. Personal sound zones, personal audio or personal sound is the theory and practice of steering sound in such a way that it is amplified in one region and suppressed in another. READ MORE

  5. 3. Enabling audio-haptics

    Author : Kirsten Rassmus-Gröhn; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synskador och blindhet; Haptiska gränssnitt - Virtual Reality;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with possible solutions to facilitate orientation, navigation and overview of non-visual interfaces and virtual environments with the help of sound in combination with force-feedback haptics. Applications with haptic force-feedback, sp... READ MORE

  6. 4. User Centered Design of Non-Visual Audio-Haptics

    Author : Kirsten Rassmus-Gröhn; Certec - Rehabiliteringsteknik och Design; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haptic; audio; non-visual; user-centered design; school; drawing; children;

    Abstract : The following article reports result from an extensive study with 25 blind users from Italy and Sweden performed during the summer 2001. The tasks reported here test recognition of geometrical objects, recognition of VRML objects, mathematical surfaces and navigation in a traffic environment. READ MORE

  7. 5. Multichannel Audio Signal Processing : Room Correction and Sound Perception

    Author : Adrian Bahne; Anders Ahlén; Lars-Johan Brännmark; Mathias Johansson; Peter Händel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Audio signal processing; multichannel sound reproduction; equalizers; human sound perception; room correction; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns and combines multichannel sound reproduction, digital room correction, audio signal processing, and human sound perception. It investigates perceived sound quality and new methods to improve timbral and spatial fidelity of loudspeaker-based multichannel sound reproduction in reverberant environments. READ MORE
