The perception of virtual acoustic environments (VAEs) has been studied for years. An interactive translation enables the listener exploring more details of the auditory scene. Especially the continuous change of the listening position has rarely been subject to research.On the other hand multiple studies have shown, that dynamic listeners perceive different details of their acoustic environment with a higher accuracy. For example, motion parallax effects can facilitate the distance perception of a translating listener. Additionally, the directivity and extent of a sound source is perceived more accurately.Whether and in which way these effects can be observed in VAEs has been studied only rudimentary so far. It is still not clear, how simplifications in the simulation algorithms affect the natural perception. Furthermore the question remains whether a simplified or missing reproduction of certain aspects are perceived as a drawback regarding quality.In the requested project, the perception of virtual auditory environments regarding a changing listening perspective is subject to research. Besides aspects of continuous changes in distance, the relative changes in orientation between the virtual sound source and the virtual listener will be investigated. Furthermore, the perception of the virtual room plays an important role in the creation of virtual scenes. However, the perception of room acoustics during the movement of a listener is not completely understood.Target of this project is the estimation of connections between certain technical parameters of position dynamic binaural synthesis and the perception of VAEs. The investigations will focus on the contribution of translational listener movement.

多年来，研究了虚拟声环境（VAE）的感知。交互式翻译使侦听器探讨了听觉场景的更多详细信息。尤其是聆听位置的持续变化很少受到研究。另一方面，多次研究表明，动态的听众以更高的精度感知其声学环境的不同细节。例如，运动视差效应可以促进翻译侦听器的距离感知。此外，更准确地感知了声源的方向性和程度。到目前为止，在VAE中可以观察到这些效果的方式。到目前为止，仅研究了这些效果。尚不清楚，模拟算法中的简化如何影响自然感知。此外，问题仍然是，某些方面的简化或缺失的复制是否被视为质量的缺点。在请求的项目中，关于不断变化的听力观点的虚拟听觉环境的感知可能会进行研究。除了距离持续变化的各个方面外，还将研究虚拟声源与虚拟听众之间方向的相对变化。此外，对虚拟房间的感知在虚拟场景的创建中起着重要作用。但是，尚不完全理解听众运动过程中房间声学的感知。该项目的目标是估计位置动态双耳合成的某些技术参数与VAE的感知之间的连接。调查将集中于翻译听众运动的贡献。
