Localisation Accuracy and Consistency of Real Sound Sources in a Practical Environment

Description

Human ability to localise sound sources in a three-dimensional (3D) space has been thoroughly studied in the past decades, however, only few studies tested its full capabilities across a wide range of vertical and horizontal positions. Yet, these studies do not reflect the real-life situations where room effect is present. Additionally, there is not enough data for the assessment of modern multichannel loudspeaker setups, such as Dolby Atmos or Auro 3D. This talk will provide an overview of a practical localisation study performed at Applied Psychoacoustics Lab, as well as an insight into human localisation mechanism in the 3D space. Furthermore, a new response method for localisation studies will be presented and analysed.
