Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 18:
19. A method for presenting spatialized sound to ears of a listener, comprising:
receiving audio information in a plurality of channels;
spatially filtering each respective channel to generate a virtual spatial array of virtual audio signals representing spatialized audio, having a larger number of virtual audio signals than a number of channels, with at least one automated processor;
mapping a plurality of the virtual audio signals to a plurality of physical transducers to produce transducer signals, wherein a number of number of virtual audio signals is greater than a number of physical transducers, the plurality of virtual audio signals mapped to a respective physical transducer being time-offset based on at least an estimated time difference of arrival at the ears of the listener, with the at least one automated processor; and
conveying the transducer signals for the plurality of physical transducers.
