摘要: Embodiments are described for a system of rendering object-based audio content through a system that includes individually addressable drivers, including at least one driver that is configured to project sound waves toward one or more surfaces within a listening environment for reflection to a listening area within the listening environment; a renderer configured to receive and process audio streams and one or more metadata sets associated with each of the audio streams and specifying a playback location of a respective audio stream; and a playback system coupled to the renderer and configured to render the audio streams to a plurality of audio feeds corresponding to the array of audio drivers in accordance with the one or more metadata sets.

摘要: Embodiments are directed to speakers and circuits that reflect sound off a wall surface (114) to a listening location at a distance from a speaker. The reflected sound (103) provides direct audio cues to reproduce audio objects that have direct audio components without the need for direct firing speakers. The speaker comprises sideward firing drivers (108) to reflect sound off of the wall surface (114) and represents a virtual direct speaker (116). A virtual direct filter is applied to the sideward-firing driver signal to improve the perception of direct audio transmitted by the sideward firing speaker (108) to provide optimum reproduction of the reflected sound. The virtual direct filter may be incorporated as part of a crossover circuit that separates the full band and sends high frequency sound to the sideward-firing driver (108).

摘要: A method of calibrating a feedback-based noise cancellation system of an ear device may involve obtaining a measured plant response of the ear device, obtaining a reference plant response value and determining a plant response variation between the reference plant response value and a value corresponding to the measured plant response. The method may involve obtaining a measured a coupler response of the ear device, obtaining a reference coupler response value and determining a coupler response variation between the reference coupler response value and a value corresponding to the measured coupler response. The method may involve determining, based at least in part on the plant response variation and the coupler response variation, a microphone signal gain correction factor and applying the microphone signal gain correction factor to ear device microphone signals that are input to a feedback loop of the feedback-based noise cancellation system.

摘要: Embodiments are described for rendering spatial audio content through a system that is configured to reflect audio off of one or more surfaces of a listening environment. The system includes an array of audio drivers distributed around a room, wherein at least one driver of the array of drivers is configured to project sound waves toward one or more surfaces of the listening environment for reflection to a listening area within the listening environment and a renderer configured to receive and process audio streams and one or more metadata sets that are associated with each of the audio streams and that specify a playback location in the listening environment.

摘要: Embodiments are directed to upward-firing speakers that reflect sound off a ceiling to a listening location at a distance from a speaker. The reflected sound provides height cues to reproduce audio objects that have overhead audio components. A virtual height filter based on a directional hearing model is applied to the upward-firing driver signal to improve the perception of height for audio signals transmitted by the virtual height speaker to provide optimum reproduction of the overhead reflected sound. The upward firing driver is tilted at an inclination angle of approximately 20 degrees to the horizontal axis of the speaker and separate height and direct terminal connections are provided to interface to an adaptive audio rendering system.

摘要: Embodiments are directed to a virtual height filter for use with or in an upward-firing speaker system that reflects sound off a ceiling to a listening location at a distance from a speaker, and that provides height cues to reproduce audio objects that have overhead audio components. A virtual height filter based on a directional hearing model is applied to the upward-firing driver signal to improve the perception of height for audio signals transmitted by the virtual height speaker to provide optimum reproduction of the overhead reflected sound. The virtual height filter is provided by any one or combination of analog or digital filter circuits, or mechanical structures including speaker grill, enclosure, or driver design or configuration.

摘要: A method of audio processing includes performing spatial analysis on a binaural signal to estimate level differences and phase differences characteristic of a binaural filter of the binaural signal, performing object extraction on the binaural audio signal using the estimated level and phase differences to generate a left/right main component signal and a left/right residual component signal. The system may process the left/right main and left/right residual components differently using different object processing parameters for e.g. repositioning, equalization, compression, upmixing, channel remapping or storage to generate a processed binaural signal that provides an improved listening experience. Repositioning may be based on head tracking sensor data.
