Ambisonics Sound Source Localization With Varying Amount of Visual Information in Virtual Reality [PDF]
To reproduce realistic audio-visual scenarios in the laboratory, Ambisonics is often used to reproduce a sound field over loudspeakers and virtual reality (VR) glasses are used to present visual information.

Directional Emphasis in Ambisonics [PDF]
We describe an ambisonics enhancement method that increases the signal strength in specified directions at low computational cost. The method can be used in a static setup to emphasize the signal arriving from a particular direction or set of directions.

Multiple scattering ambisonics: Three-dimensional sound field estimation using interacting spheres [PDF]
Rigid spherical microphone arrays (RSMAs) have been widely used in ambisonics [Gerzon (1973). J. Audio Eng. Soc. 21, 2–10] sound field recording. While it is desired to combine the information captured by a grid of densely arranged RSMAs for expanding ...

Spheroidal ambisonics: Spatial audio in spheroidal bases [PDF]
Ambisonics is an established framework to capture and reproduce spatial sound fields based on the spherical harmonics representation [Gerzon (1973). J. Audio Eng. Soc. 21(1), 2–10].

Assessing HRTF preprocessing methods for Ambisonics rendering through perceptual models [PDF]
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 complexity, although it may degrade the perceived quality, in part due to the

Assessing the ecological validity of soundscape reproduction in different laboratory settings [PDF]
The ever-growing body of soundscape research includes studies conducted both in everyday life environments and in laboratory settings. Yet, laboratory settings differ from in-situ and therefore may elicit different perceptions. The present study explores

Minimum Audible Angle in 3rd-Order Ambisonics in Horizontal Plane for Different Ambisonic Decoders
As immersive audio is gaining popularity, the perceptual aspects of spatial sound reproduction become relevant. The authors investigate a measure related to spatial resolution, the Minimum Audible Angle (MAA), which is understudied in the context of ...

Binaural Auralization of Room Acoustics with a Highly Scalable Wave-Based Acoustics Simulation
This paper presents a proposal of an efficient binaural room-acoustics auralization method, an essential goal of room-acoustics modeling. The method uses a massively parallel wave-based room-acoustics solver based on a dispersion-optimized explicit time ...
