Abstract:
A method expedites processing and playing of binaural sound during an electronic communication between a first user and a second user. An electronic device of the first user convolves sound into binaural sound for the second user before the binaural sound transmits to the electronic device of the second user. In this way, the binaural sound is already convolved and ready to play upon receipt at the electronic device of the second user.

Claim (Index 1):
A method executed by one or more electronic devices that expedites playing of sound during a telephone call between a first person and a second person, the method comprising:\n receiving, during the telephone call and at a microphone of a handheld portable electronic device (HPED) of the first person, a voice of the first person; convolving, during the telephone call and with a digital signal processor (DSP) in the HPED of the first person, the voice of the first person with head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) of the second person to change the voice of the first person into binaural sound; transmitting, during the telephone call and over a wireless network, the voice of the first person in the binaural sound to a HPED of the second person; and playing, during the telephone call and with the HPED of the second person, the voice of the first person in the binaural sound that was convolved by the DSP in the HPED of the first person such that the voice externally localizes to the second person in empty space away from a head of the second person.
