Abstract: The speaker array includes a first speaker 1, a second speaker 2, and a local sound emission structure 3. The first transmission portion 311 and the second transmission portion 312 are arranged in such a manner that the distance between the center position of the first transmission portion 311 and the center position of the second transmission portion 312 is smaller than the distance between the center position of the first speaker 1 and the center position of the second speaker 2, in order to generate sound sources that are arranged at an interval narrower than the interval between the first speaker 1 and the second speaker 2.

Abstract: The technology described in this document can be embodied in a method of reproducing audio related to a teleconference between a second location and a remote first location. The method includes receiving data representing audio captured by a microphone array disposed at the remote first location. The data includes directional information representing the direction of a sound source relative to the remote microphone array. The method also includes obtaining, based on the directional information, information representative of head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) corresponding to the direction of the sound source relative to the remote microphone array, and generating, using one or more processing devices, an output signal for an acoustic transducer located at the second location. The output signal is generated by processing the received data using the information representative of the one or more HRTFs, and is configured to cause the acoustic transducer to generate an audible acoustic signal.

Abstract: A directivity pattern generator for producing sound patterns using a modal architecture is described. The directivity pattern generator may include a beam pattern mixing unit, which defines sound patterns to be emitted by an audio system in terms of a set of frequency invariant modes or modal patterns. The beam pattern mixing unit produces a set of modal gains representing the level or degree each of the predefined modal patterns is to be applied to a set of audio streams. Modal filters may be used to modal amplitudes that compensate for inefficiencies of the each modal pattern at low frequencies. The directivity pattern generator may include a modal decomposition unit for generating driving signals for each transducer in one or more loudspeaker arrays based on weighted values for the modal gains/amplitudes.
