Abstract: A virtual sound source position determination unit (122) determines a position of the virtual sound source from which a sound represented by a sound signal is output based on a detected motion of a user (31). A sound signal processing unit (123) performs stereophonic sound processing on the sound signal based on the determined position of the virtual sound source. The sound signal processing unit (123) reproduces the sound signal subjected to the stereophonic sound processing. Thus, the sound signal is reproduced such that the sound suitable for the motion of the user is output.

Abstract: An audio-guided navigation device (1) includes a user position acquiring unit (12); an environment information acquiring unit (13); and an audio signal processing unit (143) configured to generate stereophonic sound in which a virtual sound source is configured at a leading position ahead of a user position on a route. The audio signal processing unit (143) is configured to add an acoustic effect corresponding to environment information to an audio signal.
