Toward realistic binaural auralizations – perceptual comparison between measurement and simulation-based auralizations and the real room for a classroom scenario

Acta Acustica, 2021
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 binaural auralizations based on measured binaural room impulse ...
