Dear List, Apologies for cross-posting.
The Acoustical Society of America’s, ASA Academy is considering offering a short course on the “Fundamentals of Binaural Hearing,” and we would greatly appreciate the thoughts and inputs of list member regarding such a course. All would be welcome in the course, however the primary audience would be individuals such as engineers, software developers, and technicians who have started a job that requires a basic level of knowledge of binaural hearing but have had little-to-no experience with acoustics or auditory perception. Potential course topics could include: 1) Fundamentals of acoustics (e.g., basic wave propagation, refraction, reflection) 2) Digital signal processing (e.g., sampling, quantization, filtering, FFT) 3) Fundamentals of Hearing (e.g., physical structure of ear, cochlear transduction, basic perception, auditory pathways in the brain) 4) Fundamentals of Binaural Hearing (e.g., ILDs, ITDs, spectral cues) 5) Applications of Spatial Audio (e.g., HRTFs, head tracking, dynamic vs static spatialization, room modeling) To help us further develop the course, and gauge interest, we have put together a brief survey. If you would be willing to complete the survey, and/or distribute to others in your network that may be interested, that would be great!
