Abstract: A method for playback of an audio signal at an individual seat-based sound (ISS) system in a coherent listening environment having a plurality of ISS systems and a plurality of listening modes. Each ISS system has a single transducer. A listening mode and a set of playback preferences are selected. A crosstalk cancellation algorithm for the ISS system of interest is generated using impulse response measurements of the audio signal, taken only in an acoustical domain, of a transfer function between the audio signal directly after the single transducer in the ISS system of interest and the audio signal at the head of the listener in the ISS system of interest. The crosstalk cancellation algorithm for the selected listening mode is applied to the audio signal, and the audio signal is played back at the single transducer of the ISS system of interest.

Abstract: An audio system for controlling and modifying an audio signal in a room having selectively reconfigurable architecture is disclosed. The audio system comprises a plurality of speakers mounted to an architecture configuration having one or more movable room-defining components and a control system in electronic communication with the plurality of speakers and the one or more movable room-defining components. The control system is configured to adjust one or more tuning parameters of one or more of the plurality of speakers based a position of the one or more movable room-defining components.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for personalized three-dimensional audio. In one embodiment, a sound calibration system comprises a headrest having a first speaker, a second speaker, and one or more sensors, the headrest configured to engage a head of a user, and a controller with computer readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory. The instructions, when executed, cause the controller to create customized spatial audio by utilizing a head-related impulse response (HRIR) that is modified based on an input audio signal, the location of the audio source and receiver, and the head position of the user. The resulting audio output is generated by applying the HRIR and interaural crosstalk cancellation filters to frequencies above a threshold frequency.

Abstract: A headphone system includes a calibration microphone for performing a calibration routine with a user. The calibration microphone receives a stimulus signal emitted by the headphone system and generates a response signal indicating variations in the stimulus signal that arise due to physiological attributes of the user. Based on the stimulus signal and the response signal, the calibration engine generates response data. The calibration engine processes the response data based on a headphone transfer function (HPTF) associated with the headphone system in order to create an inverse filter that can reduce or remove acoustic variations caused by the headphone system. The calibration engine generates a personalized HRTF for the user based on the response data and the inverse filter. The personalized HRTF can be used to implement highly accurate 3D audio and is thereby well-suited for applications to immersive audio and audio-visual entertainment.

Abstract: Techniques for calibrating listening devices are disclosed herein. The techniques include emitting a predetermined audio signal using an outward-facing transducer located on a first portion of a head-mounted device worn by the user, receiving the predetermined audio signal at a microphone located on a second portion of the head-mounted device, the second portion being different from the first portion, determining a transfer function for the user based on the received predetermined audio signal, and applying the transfer function to audio signals transmitted to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods to calibrate listening devices are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method to calibrate earphones includes determining a Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTF) corresponding to different parts of a user's anatomy (e.g., one or both of a listener's pinnae). The resulting HRTFs are combined to form a composite HRTF. In some embodiments, a first and a second HRTF are respectively determined for a first and second part of the user's anatomy. A composite HRTF of the user is generated by combining portions of the first and second HRTFs.
