Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method comprising: calculating a head-related transfer function for a user, the calculation based at least in part on gathered data comprising at least video material and at least one supplemental image, the at least one supplemental image comprising an image of a transparent measurement device superimposed over at least one biological detail of an user, and transmitting said head-related transfer function.

Abstract: A calculation unit for a sound reproduction system includes an input unit, a processor and at least three outputs for controlling at least three transducers of an array. The input unit has the purpose to receive an audio stream to be reproduced using the array, wherein the audio stream has a frequency range. The processor is configured to calculate three individual audio signals to be output using the at least three outputs, such that a first acoustic differential having a second or higher order is generated using the array.

Abstract: A calculation unit for a sound system includes an input terminal, a processor and an output terminal. The input terminal has the purpose to receive an audio stream to be reproduced using the sound system. The output terminal has the purpose to control the sound system based on a first and a second plurality of individual audio signals. The processor is configured to calculate the first plurality of audio signals such that beamforming is performed by the array and to calculate the second plurality of individual audio signals to perform, using the sound system, direct sound suppression such that sound is canceled towards a listening direction. Furthermore, the processor filters at least the second plurality using a second passband characteristic including a second portion of the entire frequency range.
