Abstract:
An ear shape analyzer includes: a sample ear analyzer configured to generate, for each of N sample ears, an ear shape data set that represents a difference between a point group representative of a three-dimensional shape of a reference ear and a point group representative of a three-dimensional shape of one of the N sample ears; an averaging calculator configured to generate averaged shape data by averaging N ear shape data sets generated by the sample ear analyzer; an ear shape identifier configured to identify an average ear shape of the N sample ears by translating coordinates of respective points of the point group representing the three-dimensional shape of the reference ear, by using the averaged shape data.

Claim (Index 6):
The ear shape analysis device according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a function calculator configured to calculate a head-related transfer function corresponding to the average ear shape identified by the ear shape identifier, wherein the sample ear analyzer generates, for each of a plurality of attributes, a plurality of ear shape data sets for sample ears that have each attribute from among the plurality of sample ears, the function calculator calculates head-related transfer functions for the plurality of attribute, based on the plurality of ear shape data sets by generated by the sample ear analyzer, the ear shape analysis device further comprising: a designation receiver configured to receive designation of one of the head-related transfer functions calculated by the function calculator for the respective attributes.
