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 ...
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.
Sound localization is an animal’s ability to identify the origin of a sound in distance and direction. [3] Several owl species have ears that are asymmetrical in size and location, which enhances this ability.
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.
Perceptual-based sound localization may be used to enhance and supplement robotic navigation and environment recognition capability. [1] In addition, it is also used to create virtual auditory spaces which is widely implemented in hearing aids.
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.
Spatial hearing loss refers to a form of deafness that is an inability to use spatial cues about where a sound originates from in space. Poor sound localization in turn affects the ability to understand speech in the presence of background noise.
Sound localization is the process of determining the location of a sound source. The brain utilizes subtle differences in loudness, tone and timing between the two ears to allow us to localize sound sources. [ 10 ]
