Authors: Kirkeby, Ole; Nelson, Philip A.; Hamada, Hareo

AES Convention 102 · Paper 4463 · March 1997

Abstract

A system comprising two closely spaced loudspeakers less than 30 cm apart can create very convincing virtual images in front of a single listener. The system uses digital signal processing to reproduce a pair of desired signals at the ears of the listener. The physical principles of the system are explained, and the signal processing technology involved is introduced.
