The acuity of colouration perception using non-individualised dynamic binaural synthesis

Satongar, D; Lam, YW; Pike, C

Abstract

Spectral inaccuracies in binaural synthesis caused by factors such as non-individualised HRTFs and headphone compensation filters can induce colouration artifacts; changing the perception of an intended auditory event. Detection thresholds for induced colouration artifacts can be used to approximate colouration acuity. If the colouration acuity with binaurally synthesised sound sources is perceptually equivalent to that with real sound sources, the binaural synthesis system can be considered acceptable for evaluating colouration in synthesised environments. Perceptual colouration detection thresholds using both real and binaurally synthesised sound sources were measured and compared as an indicator of colouration acuity.
