Abstract

Spatial audio signals can include audio objects that can be respectively encoded and rendered at each of multiple different depths. In an example, a method for encoding a spatial audio signal can include receiving audio scene information from an audio capture source in an environment, and receiving a depth characteristic of a first object in the environment. The depth characteristic can be determined using information from a depth sensor. A correlation can be identified between at least a portion of the audio scene information and the first object. The spatial audio signal can be encoded using the portion of the audio scene and the depth characteristic of the first object.
