虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)的兴起使得三维音频技术得到进一步的应用。VR中三维音频的回放一般采用基于双耳的方式,目前VR中应用较多的三维音频技术有基于物理声场重建和球谐分解的Ambisonies技术,基于自然双耳录音(Binaural recording)的技术,以及基于头相关传递函数(Head Related Transfer Function,HRTF)重建的技术。此外在考虑环境混响效果的场景下还需要双耳房间脉冲响应(Binaural Room Impulse Response,BRIR)技术。介绍了VR中现有的三维音频技术和市场上的主要应用,介绍了VR音频从采集,编码传输到渲染回放整个过程中的主流相关技术,最后对VR三维音频的发展进行了展望。
The rise of virtual reality (VR) makes the three-dimensional (3D) audio technology to be further applied. Binaural mode is widely used in VR audio playback. Introduces current main 3D audio technologies in VR, such as Amhisonics, binaural recording, head related transfer function (HRTF) and binaural room impulse response (BRIR). Introduces relevant applications in the market, introduces technologies of 3D audio in VR of the entire process from the acquisition, coding and transmission to the rendering and playback, and discusses the existing problems and the development of 3D audio in VR.
