Using computer vision to generate customized spatial audio
2003
2003 International Conference on Multimedia and Expo. ICME '03. Proceedings (Cat. No.03TH8698)
Computer-vision based anthropometric measurements of the head, torso, and the external ears are used for HRTF customization. ...
Creating high quality virtual spatial audio over headphones requires real-time head tracking, personalized head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) and customized room response models. ...

Comparing perceived auditory width to the visual image of a performing ensemble in contrasting bi-modal environments
2012
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Participants were given an audiovisual matching test in which they were instructed to pan the auditory width of a performing ensemble to a varying set of audio and visual cues in rooms. ...
The results of these psychophysical tests suggest the importance of congruent audio visual presentation to the ecological interpretation of an auditory scene. ...

Sonic Tennis: A Rhythmic Interaction Game For Mobile Devices
2013
Zenodo
This paper presents an audio-based tennis simulation game for mobile devices, which uses motion input and non-verbal audio feedback as exclusive means of interaction. ...
The game aims to be entertaining but also effective for educational purposes, such as ear training or improvement of the sense of timing, and enjoyable both by visually-impaired and sighted users. ...
As a matter of fact, the sound parameters used to modulate the audio signals are strongly related, if not directly mappable, to musical features and concepts. ...
