Efficient Encoding and Decoding of Binaural Sound with Resonance Audio
Abstract
Resonance Audio is an open source project designed for creating and controlling dynamic spatial sound in Virtual & Augmented Reality (VR/AR), gaming or video experiences. It also provides integrations with popular game development platforms and digital audio workstations as a preview plugin. Resonance Audio binaural decoder is used in YouTube VR to provide cinematic spatial audio experiences. This paper describes the core sound spatialization algorithms used in Resonance Audio.
