Sound Particles - The Revolution in 3D Audio Software

Project description

A revolution for entertainment audio

The adoption of 3D audio has been high in the gaming industry and in other entertainment sectors but its enjoyment is rather limited as existing audio software tools are based on 2D technologies. The EU-funded SoundParticles project aims to support the production of revolutionary 3D audio software tools. It uses the concept of computer graphics for audio, where each particle represents a 3D sound source and a virtual microphone captures the virtual sound of the particles. The project allows the creation of dramatically richer, realistic and impressive soundscapes. SoundParticles technology will enable a great increase in productivity in the whole audio sector.
