Multimodal Immersive Systems Research Theme
This theme grew out of pioneering work on surround-sound systems and has evolved to include real-time transmission over internet of high-definition multimodal content for interactive, musical shared reality situations. Work on 3D spatial auditory displays involves the development of binaural models, computer-based sound projection environments, prototype loudspeakers with 3D radiation surfaces and controllable acoustic directivity, and sound-field synthesis algorithms. The virtual immersive presence environment includes multicamera HD video processing to create a visual surround field, multichannel reconstitution of multiple sound sources and acoustic ambiance, and reconstitution of vibratory information with a motion platform.
