7. 20. Binaural technology and issues related to sound quality analysis and spatial hearing

   Author : Donatas Trapenskas; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk akustik; Engineering Acoustics;

   Abstract : Binaural technology makes it possible to record, store and reproduce sound field in a perceptually authentic way, i.e. recorded sounds are correctly reproduced so that it is as if the listener was present in the recorded environment. This method involves recording and correctly reproducing sound pressures at each of the eardrums of the listener. READ MORE
