Abstract

A system for providing spatialized audio in a vehicle, including a vehicle orientation sensor outputting a vehicle orientation signal and being disposed on the vehicle and a controller configured to receive a user orientation signal output from a user orientation sensor being on a wearable that, during use, moves with a first user's head, wherein the controller is further configured to determine an orientation of the user's head relative to the vehicle based, at least, on a difference between the vehicle orientation signal and the user orientation signal, the controller being further configured to output to a first binaural device, according to the orientation of the user's head relative to the vehicle, a first spatial audio signal, such that the first binaural device produces a first spatial acoustic signal perceived by the user as originating from a first virtual source location within a cabin of the vehicle.
