Software platform for real-time room acoustic visualization

Published: 27 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents a novel platform for interactive virtual room acoustics simulation and visualization. The platform is based on two autonomous modules: EVERTims for acoustic simulation and Audio2graphical for graphical rendering and interaction management. The system is a tool for acousticians and architects to understand better the acoustic properties of a closed space. Beside visualizing sound reflections, it allows navigation as well as geometrical properties modification of a given sound source and a listener.
