Abstract
A sound field control device according to the present disclosure includes a display target object position information acquisition unit for acquiring position information of a viewer from information obtained by imaging, and a virtual sound source position control unit for controlling a virtual sound source position on the basis of the position information. Thus, it becomes possible to optimally adjust virtual sound source reproduction in consideration of size or orientation of a head. Accordingly, it becomes possible to provide a sound field without unnatural feeling to viewers.
