Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modeling acoustics in virtual environments using the uniform theory of diffraction
TL;DR: A efficient way for computing the acoustical effect of diffraction paths using the UTD for deriving secondary diffracted rays and associated diffraction coefficients is proposed and a real-time auralization system demonstrating that diffraction dramatically improves the quality of spatialized sound in virtual environments is demonstrated.

System and method for adaptive audio signal generation, coding and rendering
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an adaptive audio system that processes audio data comprising a number of independent monophonic audio streams, which are associated with metadata that specifies whether the stream is a channel-based or object-based stream.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A beam tracing method that enables interactive updates of propagation paths from a stationary source to a moving receiver in large building interiors and is demonstrated to work effectively in interactive acoustic design and virtual walkthrough applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perceptual audio rendering of complex virtual environments
TL;DR: It is concluded that the real-time perceptual audio rendering pipeline can generate spatialized audio for complex auditory environments without introducing disturbing changes in the resulting perceived soundfield.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and Evaluation of a Real-World Virtual Environment for Architecture and Urban Planning
TL;DR: This evaluation suggests that involving users and designers from the beginning improves the effectiveness of the VE in the context of the real world urban planning project, and demonstrates that appropriate levels of realism are significant for the design process and for communicating about designs.
