Abstract:
The present invention provides for an apparatus, system, and method for generating a head related audio transfer function in real time. Specifically, the present invention utilizes unique structural components including a tragus structure and an antihelix structure in connection with a microphone in order to communicate the location of a sound in three dimensional space to a user. The invention also utilizes an audio processor to digitally process the head related audio transfer function.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for generating a head related audio transfer function for a user, said apparatus comprising:\n an external manifold disposed at least partially on an exterior of said apparatus, said external manifold comprising:\n an opening disposed along an exterior of said external manifold, said opening in air flow communication with the external environment, \n a tragus structure disposed to partially enclose said opening, \n an antihelix structure disposed to partially enclose said tragus structure and said opening, \n an opening canal in air flow communication with said opening, \n an internal manifold disposed along an interior of said apparatus, said internal manifold comprising:\n an auditory canal in air flow communication with said opening canal, \n a microphone housing attached to an end of said auditory canal, said microphone housing comprising a microphone, and \n an air cavity in air flow communication with said auditory canal; \n left and right preamplifiers configured to receive an audio signal, an audio processor configured to receive an amplified signal, and a playback module configured to receive a processed signal.
