s91133 The computer synthesis and reproduction of 3D sound environments - research towards an implementation for blind students1) Martyn Cooper, 1) Mark Pearson, 2) Helen Petrie2) University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, UK
This paper describes ongoing work towards the application of rich 3D sound
environments within education. Prototype 3D sound environments have been
constructed by synthesising Ambisonic B-Format signals using a proprietary
DSP module and a PC. The paper describes these implementations and the
results of detailed practical, technical and perceptual evaluations undertaken
with both blind and sighted subjects.
