Abstract: A system for providing a listener with an augmented audio reality in a geographical environment said system comprising a position locating system for determining a current position and orientation of a listener in said geographical environment; an audio track creation system for creating an audio track having a predetermined spatialization component dependent on an apparent location of an apparent source associated with said audio track in said geographical environment; an audio track rendering system adapted to render an audio signal based on said audio track to a series of speakers surrounding said listener such that said listener experiences an apparent preservation of said spatialization component; and an audio track playback system interconnected to said position locating system and said audio track creation system and adapted to forward a predetermined audio track to said audio rendering system for rendering depending on said current position and orientation of said listener in said geographical environ

Abstract: An audio system for providing an immersive audio experience, said system comprising: a recording system including a system for recording spatialised audio information at an event location; a broadcasting system for broadcasting said spatialised audio information to multiple users located away from said event location; and a plurality of rendering systems for rendering said broadcast spatialised audio information in a manner so as to create an apparent event location audio environment around each listener, wherein said spatialisation is maintained in the presence of movement of a listener's head.
