MIXED REALITY SYSTEM WITH SPATIALIZED AUDIO
First Claim
1. A spatialized audio system, comprising:
- a frame to be worn on a head of a user;
a plurality of speakers attached to the frame such that, when the frame is worn by the user, each of the plurality of speakers are disposed at a respective non-zero distance from the user'"'"'s head, such that each of the plurality of speakers does not contact any surface of the user'"'"'s head, including the user'"'"'s ears;
a head pose sensor to collect head pose data of the user;
a head pose processor to determine a head pose of the user from the head pose data;
a room sensor to measure an acoustic property of a room in which the user is disposed; and
a spatialized audio processor to generate spatialized audio data based on the determined head pose of the user and the measured acoustic property of the room.

Abstract
A dual source spatialized audio system includes a general audio system and a personal audio system. The general system includes a general audio processor and general speakers to produce general sound. The personal system includes a frame to be worn on a head of a user and a plurality of personal speakers attached to the frame. The personal system also includes a head pose sensor to collect head pose data of the user. The personal system further includes a head pose processor to determine a head pose of the user from the head pose data. Moreover, the personal system includes a personal audio processor to generate personal audio data based on the head pose of the user. The personal speakers generate personal sound corresponding to the personal audio data. The personal processor receives timing information/metadata from the general audio processor to synchronize the personal sound with the general sound.
