Capturing spatial audio from arbitrary microphone arrays for binaural reproduction
Spatial audio has typically been recorded from specialized microphone arrays that are too expensive and unwieldy to incorporate into today's consumer devices. Consumer devices, such as mobile devices, typically use cheap microphones with strict limitations on array geometry. Therefore, in order to …

Simulation and analysis of spatial audio reproduction and listening area effects
Loudspeaker-based spatial audio systems are often designed with the aim to create an auditory event or scene to a listener positioned in the optimal listening position. However, in real-world domestic listening environments, listeners can be distributed across the listening area. Any translational …
