چکیده

Most binaural 3D sound implementations use large databases with pre-recorded transfer functions, which are mostly prohibitive for real time embedded applications. This article focus on a parametric approach proposal, opening space for customizations and to add new processing blocks easily. In this work we show the feasibility of a parametric binaural architecture for dynamic sound localization in embedded platforms for mobile applications, ranging from multimedia and entertainment to hearing aid for individuals with visual disabilities. The complete solution, ranging from algorithms analysis and suiting, development using the Beagleboard platform for prototyping, and performance benchmarks, are presented.

A Library for Realtime 3d Binaural Sound Reproduction in Pure Data (pd)

This paper presents a library for programming 3D binaural sound reproduction systems using Pure Data (pd), an open source computer music programming language. The theory that forms the basis of the proposed library is an improved virtual Ambisonics approach. Using this approach provides computationally efficient implementation of multiple moving sound sources, room simulation, head tracking and...

A structural model for binaural sound synthesis

A structural model is presented for synthesizing binaural sound from a monaural source. The model produces well-controlled vertical as well as horizontal effects. The model is based on a simplified time-domain description of the physics of wave propagation and diffraction. The components of the model have a one-to-one correspondence with the physical sources of sound diffraction, delay and refl...

A 3d Real Time Rendering Engine for Binaural Sound Reproduction

A method of computationally efficient 3D sound reproduction via headphones is presented using a virtual Ambisonic approach. Previous studies have shown that incorporating head tracking as well as room simulation is important to improve sound source localization capabilities. The simulation of virtual acoustic space requires to filter the stimuli with head related transfer functions (HRTFs). In ...

A Spike-Based Model of Binaural Sound Localization

This paper describes a spike-based model of binaural sound localization using interaural time differences (ITDs). To handle the problem of temporal coding and to facilitate a hardware implementation all neurons are simulated by a spike response model, which includes postsynaptic potentials (PSPs) and a refractory period. A winner-take-all (WTA) network selects the dominant source from the repre...

A Bayesian Binaural System for 3D Sound-Source Localisation

In this text we present a Bayesian system of auditory localisation in distance, azimuth and elevation using binaural cues only. We describe its supporting sensor model and calibration procedure. The binaural system is also integrated in a spatial representation framework for multimodal perception of 3D structure and motion — the Bayesian Volumetric Map (BVM). This solution will enable the imple...
