  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. 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 ...

  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.

    However, our localization acuity depends on whether the sound is located in front, to the side, behind, or above. Humans are very good at locating sounds in front of us, usually within 1 degree of ...

    While the relationship between human perception of sound and various attributes of the sound field is not yet well understood, [2] DSP algorithms for sound localization are able to employ several mechanisms found in neural systems, including the interaural time difference (ITD, the difference in arrival time of a sound between two locations), the interaural intensity difference (IID, the ...

  7. Acoustic location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_location

    Sonar (sound navigation and ranging) is a technique that uses sound propagation under water (or occasionally in air) to navigate, communicate or to detect other vessels. There are two kinds of sonar – active and passive. A single active sonar can localize in range and bearing as well as measuring radial speed.

  8. 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 ...
