    Abstract: An audio processing system may obtain a size of a visual object to present to a display. The audio processing system may determine a virtual placement for each of a plurality of virtual speakers at least based on the size of the visual object. Each of the plurality of virtual speakers may be spatially rendered at each virtual placement through binaural audio, for playback through head-worn speakers. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

    Abstract: Each of a plurality of virtual loudspeaker arrays and their channels are produced, based on a corresponding microphone array and microphone signals thereof. Channels of a hallucinated loudspeaker array are determined based on the channels of the plurality of virtual loudspeaker arrays. The plurality of virtual loudspeaker arrays and the hallucinated loudspeaker array share a common geometry and orientation. Spatial audio is rendered based on the channels of the hallucinated loudspeaker array.

    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that that modify audio of played back AV content based on context in accordance with some implementations. In some implementations audio-visual content of a physical environment is obtained, and the audio-visual content includes visual content and audio content that includes a plurality of audio portions corresponding to the visual content. In some implementations, a context for presenting the audio-visual content is determined, and a temporal relationship between one or more audio portions of the plurality of audio portions and the visual content is determined based on the context. Then, synthesized audio-visual content is presented based on the temporal relationship.

    Abstract: Spatial filters are generated that map response of an audio capture device to head related transfer functions (HRTFs) for different positions of the audio capture device relative to the HRTFs. A current set of spatial filters are determined based on the plurality of spatial filters and a head position of a user. The microphone signals are convolved with the current set of spatial filters, resulting in a left audio channel and right audio channel that form output binaural audio channels. The binaural audio channels can be used to drive speakers of a headphone set to generate sound that is perceived to have a spatial quality. Other aspects are described and claimed.
