Hi all, Just thought I'd chime in as the author of the mentioned toolkit - I'm happy to answer any questions anyone might have and to try to help you get it up and running if needed. Regarding the spherical harmonic HRTF (SH-HRTF) approach

Hi, I can confirm that we (at IDA) do the acoustic simulation for the torso+head+pinnae mesh, using the exact anatomy of the individual. Pinnae are quite important parts and that's why we show comparison between the actual pinna and reconstructed one in the demo video since we're a bit proud of

I had my head & shoulders scanned in the past and my HRTFs produced by IDA have worked very well for me. Unless they have changed their approach, and as far as I know, they do not measure features or try to match anthropometric dimensions to HRTFs in a database (which is still problematic since

Does it measure ITDs and ILDs as well or just the Pinna ? I would like to try it anyway - but retain slight skepticism for now.. On 23 November 2017 at 09:50, Politis Archontis wrote: > Hi Gernot, > > I haven’t used the toolkit, but I don’t see the reason for

Hi Gernot, I haven’t used the toolkit, but I don’t see the reason for HRTF interpolation in a predefined grid - if you generate the spherical harmonic filters for whatever HRTF set you have without interpolation, then all you need in AmbiX is a binaural decoding configuration file with a

Looking through IDA informations there seem to be two different ways to perform the individual scans: - "Using their smartphone’s camera, users will be able to scan themselves, gathering sufficient data for IDA Audio and Genelec to accurately 3D model and then create the unique HRTF filter set
