sound field synthesis

Sound field synthesis is a technique that creates a desired sound environment by producing controlled sound waves from multiple speakers. By carefully adjusting the timing and intensity of each speaker, it can replicate how sound would naturally arrive at a listener’s ears in a specific space, making it seem as if the original sound sources are present or as if the listener is in a particular location. This technology is used in advanced audio systems, virtual reality, and soundscaping to produce immersive, realistic listening experiences without requiring a large number of speakers or physical sound sources everywhere in the environment.
