  2. Sound localization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_localization

    Sound localization is a listener's ability to identify the location or origin of a detected sound in direction and distance. The sound localization mechanisms of the mammalian auditory system have been extensively studied. The auditory system uses several cues for sound source localization, including time difference and level difference (or ...

  3. Acoustic location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_location

    Acoustic source localization [4] is the task of locating a sound source given measurements of the sound field. The sound field can be described using physical quantities like sound pressure and particle velocity. By measuring these properties it is (indirectly) possible to obtain a source direction.

  4. 3D sound localization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_sound_localization

    3D sound localization refers to an acoustic technology that is used to locate the source of a sound in a three-dimensional space. The source location is usually determined by the direction of the incoming sound waves (horizontal and vertical angles) and the distance between the source and sensors.

  5. Interaural time difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaural_time_difference

    (sound source: 100 ms white noise from 90° azimuth, 0° elevation) The interaural time difference (or ITD) when concerning humans or animals, is the difference in arrival time of a sound between two ears. It is important in the localization of sounds, as it provides a cue to the direction or angle of the sound source from the head. If a signal ...

  6. 3D sound reconstruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3d_sound_reconstruction

    3D sound reconstruction is the application of reconstruction techniques to 3D sound localization technology. These methods of reconstructing three- dimensional sound are used to recreate sounds to match natural environments and provide spatial cues of the sound source.

  7. Auditory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_system

    The central nucleus of the IC is a nearly obligatory relay in the ascending auditory system, and most likely acts to integrate information (specifically regarding sound source localization from the superior olivary complex [13] and dorsal cochlear nucleus) before sending it to the thalamus and cortex. [1]

  8. Surround sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surround_sound

    [24] [25] The localization of a virtual source, based on level differences between two loudspeakers to the side of a listener, shows great inconsistency across the standardized 5.1 setup, also being largely affected by movement away from the reference position. 5.1 surround is therefore limited in its ability to convey 3D sound, making the ...

  9. Binaural fusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_fusion

    Sound localization is the ability to correctly identify the directional location of sounds, typically quantified in terms of azimuth (angle around the horizontal plane) and elevation (defined in various ways as an angle from the horizontal plane). The time, intensity, and spectral differences in the sounds arriving at the two ears are used in ...
