abstract



This was my thesis project in electroacoustics, completed for obtaining my MSc in engineering physics. It consisted in building a 3D sound system for headphones that allowed real-time sound source and user displacement in a virtual acoustic environment, compensating for head movements with a magnetic headtracker. Because of a flexible design with different sets of pre-selected physically modelled filters, the complexity level of the simulation could easily be chosen, making the system adaptable to both available computing power and realism requirements in the development of interactive applications.
