- Motivation of the Reserch:
Don't you wonder how do we detect the spatial properties ( direction, distance, spaciousness ... ) of sound in three-dimensional space with only two ears? This simple question is the origin of the laboratory.
We are trying to realize the recognition, transmission, reproduction and creation of 3-D sound space by clarifying auditory mechanisms for spatial perception

- Reserch Themes:
 1) Investigation on mechanisms for sptial perception (direction, distance, spaciousness, and so on)
 2) Development of the system for recognition, transmission, reproduction and creation of 3-D sound space
 3) Buiding an authoring system for the composition of 3-D music

- Expected Applications of Research Activities:
 1) 3-D Space Reprduction: audio equipment, mobile phone, PC, TV, ..
 2) 3-D Space Transmission: ultra realistic communication system ...
 3) 3-D Space Recognition: robot, security sensor, car, hearing aids, ...
 4) 3-D Authoring System: music composition, sound contents creation, ...
