IP3 2025 – Audio Processing 1 (Lot 16310)

This lot is generally related to the processing of three-dimensional (3D) or binaural sound, enabling low-latency, silent communication without transmitting full audio files. It reduces bandwidth and processing load while enhancing spatial awareness and immersion through realistic sound localization. Techniques are disclosed for playing binaural sound clips during mobile communication by intertwining the sound clips with head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). The disclosed system stores and processes a sound clip with HRTFs and associates a unique identifier with the sound clip. The system enables users to play the sound clips in binaural sound during electronic communication by exchanging unique identifiers that reference the sound clips stored on mobile devices. The technology may be implemented in AR/VR devices, gaming systems, mobile devices, wearable devices, headphones, mobile
