Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the perception of height cues in motion-tracked transaural reproduction. 10 subjects were asked to localise sounding objects with height in a two-loudspeaker head-tracked transaural reproduction setup. Features of the head related transfer function (HRTF) for height perception were tested with generic HRTFs from a KEMAR binaural mannequin and additional spatial filtering through modeling and subsequent exaggeration of HRTF cues for height perception. Results illustrate the applicability of HRTF cue exaggeration in transaural systems for height perception with non-individualised HRTFs.
