Abstract:
Audiovisual presentations, such as film recordings, may have been originally created having an audio soundtrack with multiple audio tracks mixed for a surround sound system that includes a set of speakers physically surrounding a user. The present disclosure presents systems and methods to remix these soundtracks into 3D audio that when presented to the ears of a user can be perceived as a virtual surround sound system that mimics the physical system. What is more, the disclosed systems and methods can enhance the virtual surround sound system by adjusting virtual speakers of the virtual surround sound system according to video content of the audiovisual presentation. Further enhancement may be possible by adjusting the virtual speakers of the virtual surround sound system according to a sensed position of a user.
