Abstract:
Systems and methods discussed herein can provide three-dimensional audio virtualization with sweet spot adaptation. In an example, an audio processor circuit can be used to update audio signals for sweet spot adaptation based on information from at least one depth sensor or camera about a listener position in a listening environment.

Claim (Index 19):
An apparatus for generating one or more virtualized audio signals for a first listener in an environment based on an input audio signal, the apparatus comprising:\n a first sensor with an image processing circuit configured to receive image information from a first field of view of the first sensor and determine a distance from the first sensor to the first listener in the first field of view of the first sensor, wherein the image processing circuit is configured to determine the distance using information about one or more of a head yaw, head pitch, or head roll angle of the first listener; and an audio processor circuit configured to generate one or more virtualized audio signals based on (1) the determined distance from the camera to the first listener, (2) information about a position of a loudspeaker relative to the first sensor, and (3) the input audio signal.
