The purpose of this seminar is to explore the advances and technologies of surround sound in the consumer market. Human hearing is binaural (based on two ears), yet we have the ability to locate sound spatially. That is, we can determine where a sound is coming from, and in most cases, from how far away. In addition, humans can distinguish multiple sound sources in relation to the surrounding environment. This is possible because our brains can determine the location of each sound in the three-dimensional environment we live in by processing the information received by our two ears.
