New Spatial Processing Algorithm for Sound Generation

Technology Application

The patented method can be implemented in a rack mount system for use in live performance to insure accurate reproduction of sound regardless of speaker set up or venue, in home theater systems to optimize sound generation for a given speaker configuration, in surround-sound music composition software, in pro-level audio engineering software and systems for optimal multi-track recording.

Detailed Technology Description

Researchers from UC San Diego have patented a method that represents an advance in the area of accurate spatial processing of sounds. The invention is especially useful in reproducing spatially-significant sounds within a confined area (such as a concert hall, small club, or large arena) without specialized speaker placement.
