Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for determining a dynamic head-related transfer function for a subject includes receiving audio recordings of a sound captured by audio sensors. The sound is emitted by an in-ear speaker worn by the subject. Additionally, a reference signal captured by a microphone coupled to the in-ear speaker and one or more images captured by image sensors are received. The one or more images depict a body pose of the subject while the sound is emitted by the in-ear speaker and may be used to generate a pose representation of the body pose of the subject. A head-related transfer function for each audio sensor is determined based on the pose representation, the audio recordings of the sound, and the reference signal. The dynamic head-related transfer function is determined based on the head-related transfer function for each audio sensor.
