Presentation by Hyunkook Lee (University of Huddersfield) on Tuesday, Aug. 29, 3 pm, TA lecture room:
Title
Psychoacoustics of surround sound with height
Abstract
New surround sound formats such as Dolby Atmos and Auro 3D utilise loudspeakers placed at elevated positions, so-called the height channels. These are used for 3D sound panning and enhancing spatial impression. The mechanisms of human spatial perception for horizontal stereo and surround sound are now well understood. However, the perception of vertical stereophony with height channels relies on a fundamentally different psychoacoustic principles. This seminar will introduce past and current research on vertical stereophonic localisation and vertical interchannel decorrelation for vertical spread perception, as well as new 3D sound microphone array techniques and new 2D-to-3D upmixing techniques. The talk will be accompanied with 9.1 recording demos.
Bio
Hyunkook Lee is Senior Lecturer (i.e. associate professor) in music technology and the leader of the Applied Psychoacoustics Lab (APL) at the University of Huddersfield, UK. From 2006 to 2010, Dr. Lee was Senior Research Engineer in audio R&D at LG Electronics, South Korea. He received a B.Mus. degree in music and sound recording (Tonmeister) from the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK, in 2002, and his Ph.D. degree in audio engineering and psychoacoustics from the Institute of Sound Recording (IoSR) at the same University in 2006. His current research includes spatial audio perception, capturing and rendering techniques for 3D and VR audio, intelligent sound engineering, and interactive virtual acoustics. Hyunkook is an active member of the Audio Engineering Society since 2001 and a fellow of the Higher Education Academy, UK.
