Experts hail 3D audio plug-in VIRTUOSO developed by a Huddersfield academic 'a game-changer'

VIRTUOSO, developed by Dr. Hyunkook Lee from the University of Huddersfield's Applied Psychoacoustics Lab, enables immersive 3D audio without loudspeakers through binaural technology powered by ASPEN. This technology simulates the ambience and reflections found in a room with headphones, allowing for accurate translation to real speakers.

Compact broadband acoustic absorber with coherently coupled weak resonances

Researchers from Tongji University and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University developed a compact broadband acoustic absorber using imperfect components with low absorption peaks. By modulating the coherent coupling effect, they achieved quasi-perfect absorption across a broad frequency range (870 - 3224 Hz) with an average coefficient o...
