  • Patent number: 10349201
    Abstract: Disclosed is an audio signal processing device for performing binaural rendering on an input audio signal. The audio signal processing device includes a reception unit configured to receive the input audio signal, a binaural renderer configured to generate a 2-channel audio by performing binaural rendering on the input audio signal, and an output unit configured to output the 2-channel audio. The binaural renderer performs binaural rendering on the input audio signal based on a distance from a listener to a sound source corresponding to the input audio signal and a size of an object simulated by the sound source.

  • Patent number: 10271157
    Abstract: Disclosed is an audio signal processing device. The audio signal processing device includes a receiving unit configured to receive a first audio signal corresponding to a sound collected by a first sound collecting device and a second audio signal corresponding to a sound collected by a second sound collecting device, a processor configured to process the second audio signal based on a correlation between the first audio signal and the second audio signal, and an output unit configured to output a processed second audio signal. The first audio signal is a signal for reproducing an output sound of a specific sound object, and the second audio signal is a signal for ambience reproduction of a space in which the specific sound object is positioned.
