Abstract: Audio system height channel up-mixing that is configured to develop two or more height channels from audio sources that do not include height-related encoding. The up-mixing involves determining correlations and normalized channel energies between input audio signals. At least two height channels (e.g., left and right height audio signals) are developed from the correlations and normalized energies.

Abstract: An audio system that is configured to convert a plurality of audio input channels to object-based audio, and a related computer program product. Correlation between input channels and energy balance between the input channels are determined. The determined correlation and energy balance are mapped to output three-dimensional spatial locations.

Abstract: A computer program product having a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer program logic encoded thereon that, when performed on a surround sound audio system that is configured to render left front, right front, and center front audio signals, and also render left and right near-field binaurally-encoded audio signals, causes the surround sound audio system to develop the left and right near-field binaurally-encoded audio signals, and provide the left near-field binaurally-encoded audio signal to a left non-occluding near-field driver and provide the right near-field binaurally-encoded audio signal to a right non-occluding near-field driver.

Abstract: An audio system with first and second discrete audio drivers that are in a listening space, wherein each driver is configured to radiate sound into the listening space, and wherein the radiated sound from each driver at a listening location in the listening space has a frequency, phase, and magnitude. The audio system is configured to modify a phase of the sound radiated by at least one of the first or second drivers such that a phase response difference between the first and second drivers at the listening location is closer to zero degrees than it was before the modification.

Abstract: An audio adjustment system is provided that can output a user interface customized by the provider of the audio system instead of the electronic device manufacturer. Such an arrangement can save both field engineers and manufacturers a significant amount of time. Advantageously, in certain embodiments, such an audio adjustment system can be provided without knowledge of the electronic device's firmware. Instead, the audio adjustment system can communicate with the electronic device through an existing audio interface in the electronic device to enable a user to control audio enhancement parameters in the electronic device. For instance, the audio adjustment system can control the electronic device via an audio input jack on the electronic device.

Abstract: Embodiments herein are primarily described in the context of a system, a method, and a non-transitory computer readable medium for producing a sound with enhanced spatial detectability and reduced crosstalk interference. The audio processing system receives an input audio signal, and performs an audio processing on the input audio signal to generate an output audio signal. In one aspect of the disclosed embodiments, the audio processing system divides the input audio signal into different frequency bands, and enhances a spatial component of the input audio signal with respect to a nonspatial component of the input audio signal for each frequency band.

Abstract: A depth processing system can employ stereo speakers to achieve immersive effects. The depth processing system can advantageously manipulate phase and/or amplitude information to render audio along a listener's median plane, thereby rendering audio along varying depths. In one embodiment, the depth processing system analyzes left and right stereo input signals to infer depth, which may change over time. The depth processing system can then vary the phase and/or amplitude decorrelation between the audio signals over time to enhance the sense of depth already present in the audio signals, thereby creating an immersive depth effect.

Abstract: Embodiments herein are primarily described in the context of a system, a method, and a non-transitory computer readable medium for producing a sound with enhanced spatial detectability and a crosstalk simulation. The audio processing system receives a left and right input channel of an audio input signal, and performs an audio processing to generate an output audio signal. The system generates left and right spatially enhanced signals by gain adjusting side subband components and mid subband components of the left and right input channels. The audio processing system generates left and right crosstalk channels such as by applying a filter and time delay to the left and right input channels, and mixes the spatially enhanced channels with the crosstalk channels. In some embodiments, the system includes high/low frequency enhancement channels and passthrough channels derived from the input channels, which can be mixed with the output audio signal.
