Description

Psychoacoustics is the scientific study of sound perception. Within this field, Virtual Reality is a technique that uses two synthesis speakers to simulate a sine tone coming from anywhere in open space. Using this method it is possible to independently control specific binaural cues in a free-field environment. This study analyzes listener responses to these controlled sine tones to investigate the relative importance of certain binaural cues at different frequencies.
