Abstract
Provided are methods and systems for delivering three-dimensional, immersive spatial audio to a user over a headphone, where the headphone includes one or more virtual speaker conditions. The methods and systems recreate a naturally sounding sound field at the user's ears, including cues for elevation and depth perception. Among numerous other potential uses and applications, the methods and systems of the present disclosure may be implemented for virtual reality applications.
