Abstract
System and method for projecting audio signals to an operator of a teleoperational surgical system to convey spatial orientation associated with the audio signals to the operator. Characteristics of the audio signals such as direction and volume may be selected to give the impression that the remote operator is positioned locally next to the patient. Characteristics of the audio signals may also be modified to provide spatial translations between actual locations of audio sources within a physical audio environment and simulations locations of the audio sources with a virtual audio environment.
