Abstract: Determination of an acoustic filter for incorporating local effects of room modes within a target area is presented herein. A model of the target area is determined based in part on a three-dimensional virtual representation of the target area. In some embodiments, the model is selected from a group of candidate models. Room modes of the target area are determined based on a shape and/or dimensions of the model. The room mode parameters are determined based on at least one of the room modes and the position of a user within the target area. The room mode parameters describe an acoustic filter that as applied to audio content, simulates acoustic distortion at the position of the user and at frequencies associated with the at least one room mode. The acoustic filter is generated at a headset based on the room mode parameter and is used to present audio content.

Abstract: Determination of a set of acoustic parameters for a headset is presented herein. The set of acoustic parameters can be determined based on a virtual model of physical locations stored at a mapping server. The virtual model describes a plurality of spaces and acoustic properties of those spaces, wherein the location in the virtual model corresponds to a physical location of the headset. A location in the virtual model for the headset is determined based on information describing at least a portion of the local area received from the headset. The set of acoustic parameters associated with the physical location of the headset is determined based in part on the determined location in the virtual model and any acoustic parameters associated with the determined location. The headset presents audio content using the set of acoustic parameters received from the mapping server.

Abstract: An audio system generates virtual acoustic environments with three-dimensional (3-D) sound from legacy video with two-dimensional (2-D) sound. The system relocates sound sources within the video from 2-D to into a 3-D geometry to create an immersive 3-D virtual scene of the video that can be viewed using a headset. Accordingly, an audio processing system obtains a video that includes flat mono or stereo audio being generated by one or more sources in the video. The system isolates the audio from each source by segmenting the individual audio sources. Reverberation is removed from the audio from each source to obtain each source's direct sound component. The direct sound component is then re-spatialized to the 3-D local area of the video to generate the 3-D audio based on acoustic characteristics obtained for the local area in the video.

Abstract: An audio system on a headset presents, to a user, audio content simulating a target artificial reality environment. The system receives audio content from an environment and analyzes the audio content to determine a set of acoustic properties associated with the environment. The audio content may be user generated or ambient sound. After receiving a set of target acoustic properties for a target environment, the system determines a transfer function by comparing the set of acoustic properties and the target environment's acoustic properties. The system adjusts the audio content based on the transfer function and presents the adjusted audio content to the user. The presented adjusted audio content includes one or more of the target acoustic properties for the target environment.

Abstract: An audio analysis system receives a first recording of a speech signal from an origin audio assembly and a second recording of at least a portion of the speech signal from a receiving audio assembly. The speech signal originates from a speaking user of the origin audio assembly and the second recording is recorded by a receiving audio assembly operated by a different user. Both the origin audio assembly and the receiving audio assembly are located within a room. The audio analysis system selects one or more audio frames in the first recording and one or more audio frames in the second recording that both occur over the same time period. The audio analysis system determines a transfer function for the room based in part on the selected one or more audio frames in the first recording and the selected one or more audio frames in the second recording.
