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 for personal rendering of 3D audio." [https://www.genelec.com/genelec-and-ida-audio-redefine-immersive-3d-audio-professional-headphone-users <https://www.genelec.com/genelec-and-ida-audio-redefine-immersive-3d-audio-professional-headphone-users>] - "An IDA 3D scan can be performed at a licensed IDA ScanStation on a variety of scanners, including structured light, laser, and photogrammetry scanners."

Regarding the import of SOFA files into the ambiX binaural player the Princeton University 3-D Audio & Applied Acoustics Lab has developed the SABRE toolkit specifically for this task (https://www.princeton.edu/3D3A/SABREToolkit.html <https://www.princeton.edu/3D3A/SABREToolkit.html>). Requires MATLAB knowledge and decisions about interpolation "when measured HRTFs are not available at the desired grid positions". Anyone having experiences with this toolkit? -- Gernot > > On Sun, 5 Nov 2017 09:59:36 +0000 > Augustine Leudar <augustineleu...@gmail.com > <mailto:augustineleu...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > Let us know how you get on with height....
