This project is dedicated to creating an interactive and immersive three-dimensional surround sound interface. Different from most 5.1 or 7.1 systems, this immersive environment combines sound wave mechanics with a 40 point source system to localize a sound in a user controlled 3D environment. An interactive and real-time system like this can be used to experiment with psychoacoustics, and to simulate complex environments where many sounds are coming from many different places.
