This project will investigate the effects of head movements on the spatial perception of sound, with a view to improving objective measurements and modelling. More info can be found at http://www.sur

This project lays the groundwork for the development of a system to train listeners to hear spatial audio attributes. It includes the development of synthesis techniques for exemplary stimuli and of sensory profiling techniques for stimulus validation.

The aim of this project is the development and validation of an ear training system for spatial audio evaluation. More info is available at http://www.surrey.ac.uk/soundrec/php/kassier.php

This project develops a sound hybridisation system whose parameters are steerable by perceptually-meaningful timbral descriptors. More project information is available at http://www.surrey.ac.uk/soun

A novel system of computer algorithms is formulated to perform onset-guided source localisation using binaural stimuli. The main components of the system are a model of the human auditory periphery, an onset detector, a running localisation algorithm, and appropriate logic to combine these.

A novel acoustic measurement technique has been developed and refined such that it can now provide an accurate prediction of human perception of source direction, apparent source width and environment width.
