Patent ID: 8718301

Claim:
A telescopic spatial radio method comprising: sending a signal representative of a sound at a speaker location to a listener location, the signal providing positioning information of the speaker location relative to the listener location; processing the signal using the positioning information to provide telescopic binaural sound at the listener location having a simulated spatial relationship based on the position information of the speaker location relative to the listener location; providing the binaural sound to have simulated spatial relationships based on the positions and distances of a plurality of speaker locations relative to the listener location; zooming in or out the binaural sound to a simulated distance among the plurality of speaker locations and the listener location based on the number of speaker locations, sound volumes from the speaker locations, distances of the speaker locations, positions of the speaker locations, or a combination thereof to the listener location; and generating audible output of the telescopic binaural sound at the listener location.
