Reverberation Generation for Headphone Virtualization
First Claim
1. A method for generating one or more components of a binaural room impulse response (BRIR) for headphone virtualization, comprising:
- generating directionally-controlled reflections that impart a desired perceptual cue to an audio input signal corresponding to a sound source location; and
combining at least the generated reflections to obtain the one or more components of the BRIR.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to reverberation generation for headphone virtualization. A method of generating one or more components of a binaural room impulse response (BRIR) for headphone virtualization is described. In the method, directionally-controlled reflections are generated, wherein directionally-controlled reflections impart a desired perceptual cue to an audio input signal corresponding to a sound source location. Then at least the generated reflections are combined to obtain the one or more components of the BRIR. Corresponding system and computer program products are described as well.

37. A method for generating left-ear and right-ear binaural signals from one or more audio input signals for headphone presentation comprising:
-
determining a sound source location corresponding to each of said one or more audio input signals; convolving each of said one or more audio input signals with one or more components of a BRIR corresponding to the sound source location to obtain left-ear and right-ear intermediate signals, wherein at least one of said components of the BRIR comprises directionally-controlled reflections that impart a desired perceptual cue to said one or more audio input signals respectively; combining the left-ear intermediate signals to produce the left-ear binaural signal and combining the right-ear intermediate signals to produce the right-ear binaural signal.
