Spatial Audio Booth

The Spatial Audio Booth booth features an ambisonics loudspeaker system to test peoples’ response to surround sound in augmented and virtual reality systems.

The Spatial Audio Booth has been used recently to test the intelligibility of speech in broadcast audio content for the BBC and to explore how what you see affects how good a concert hall sounds (VR). It also helped Qualcomm understand the audible quality of different Bluetooth codecs and for the BBC to see peoples’ responses to different surround sound reproduction by using brain imaging (EEG).
