Abstract
An exemplary acoustics simulation system identifies a location within an extended reality world of an avatar of a user who is using a media player device to experience the extended reality world via the avatar. The acoustics simulation system selects, from an impulse response library that includes a plurality of different impulse responses each corresponding to a different subspace of the extended reality world, an impulse response that corresponds to a particular subspace of the different subspaces of the extended reality world. Specifically, the particular subspace selected is associated with the location that has been identified. Based on the selected impulse response, the acoustics simulation system generates an audio stream configured, when rendered by the media player device, to present sound to the user in accordance with simulated acoustics customized to the identified location of the avatar within the extended reality world. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
