Abstract
Spatial filters are generated that map response of an audio capture device to head related transfer functions (HRTFs) for different positions of the audio capture device relative to the HRTFs. A current set of spatial filters are determined based on the plurality of spatial filters and a head position of a user. The microphone signals are convolved with the current set of spatial filters, resulting in a left audio channel and right audio channel that form output binaural audio channels. The binaural audio channels can be used to drive speakers of a headphone set to generate sound that is perceived to have a spatial quality. Other aspects are described and claimed.
