PRINCIPLES AND APPLICATIONS OF SPATIAL HEARINGMiyagi-Zao Royal Hotel, Sendai, Japan, 11 – 13 November 2009 edited by Yôiti Suzuki (Tohoku University, Japan), Douglas Brungart (Walter Reed Army Medical Center, USA), Yukio Iwaya (Tohoku University, Japan), Kazuhiro Iida (Chiba Institute of Technology, Japan), Densil Cabrera (University of Sydney, Australia) & Hiroaki Kato (NICT, Japan) Humans possess a remarkable ability to extract rich three-dimensional information about sound environments simply by analyzing the acoustic signals they receive at their two ears. Research in spatial hearing has evolved from a theoretical discipline studying the basic mechanisms of hearing to a technical discipline focused on designing and implementing increasingly sophisticated spatial auditory display systems. This book contains 39 chapters representing the current state-of-the-art in spatial audio research selected from papers presented in Sendai, Japan, at the First International Workshop on the Principles and Applications of Spatial Hearing. Readership: R&D engineers of audio engineering; acoustics researchers; audiology researchers; R&D engineers of hearing aids; educators in audio, audiology and acoustics; virtual and augmented reality researchers; audio engineering enthusiasts; cognitive scientists; multimedia information processing researchers; multimodal information processing researchers; 3D image displays researchers. |
