More Information
Summary:Systems, devices, and methods for capturing audio which can be used in applications such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality systems. Some systems can include a plurality of distributed monitoring devices. Each monitoring device can include a microphone and a location tracking unit. The monitoring devices can capture audio signals in an environment, as well as location tracking signals which respectively indicate the locations of the monitoring devices over time during capture of the audio signals. The system can also include a processor to receive the audio signals and the location tracking signals. The processor can determine one or more acoustic properties of the environment based on the audio signals and the location tracking signals.
