B&O Tech: Sound Source Localisation

#101 in a series of articles about the technology behind Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers

I’ve started working with a number of my colleagues on a series of videos for internal training at Bang & Olufsen. They were kind enough to make some of these videos publicly available.

This video explains how we are able to localise the direction of and the distance to a sound source in the real world.

Note that there are two small errors in the video. I said that 800 µsec is 8 millionths of a second. It’s 800 millionths of a second. I’ll let you find the other error.
