Immersive audio is one of the critical elements in IMSC's vision of Immersipresence. The algorithms that we are developing will enable multiple listeners to be immersed in a remote environment simultaneously. We are looking to go beyond the individual in front of their PC, but rather to focus on the group experience. Using our algorithms, people can be transported from the middle of a presidential press conference to a sports event or a concert, to a distant classroom exploring the human brain. All of these experiences require very high quality, noisefree signals for rendering. This method takes a significant step in that direction.
