This chapter looks at a range of auditory display and sonification applications that have
tackled the problem of monitoring real-time data streams and concludes with some …

A method is proposed that provides an approximation of the acoustic energy decay (energy–
time curve) in room impulse responses generated using the image-source technique. A …

The key question arising in this paper, is how our currently ubiquitous and pervasive
information and communication technologies (ICT) has throughout the years managed …

Sonification is defined as presentation of information by means of non-speech audio. In
assistive technologies for the blind, sonification is most often used in electronic travel aids …

In many research fields of engineering and acoustics, the image-source model represents
one of the most popular tools for the simulation of sound fields in virtual reverberant …

Simulating sounds produced by realistic vibrating objects is challenging because sound
radiation involves complex diffraction and interreflection effects that are very perceptible and …

This book gives a broad overview of research on sound simulation driven by a variety of
applications. Vibrating objects produce sound, which then propagates through a medium …

Determining early specular reflection paths is essential for room acoustics modeling. Beam
tracing algorithms have been used to calculate these paths efficiently, thus allowing …

In computer graphics, most research focuses on creating images. However, there has been
much recent work on the automatic generation of sound linked to objects in motion and the …

We present a new approach for real-time sound rendering in complex, virtual scenes with
dynamic sources and objects. Our approach combines the efficiency of interactive ray …
