Abstract

Many types of VR systems have been developed to provide spatial views and surround sound to express high levels of presence. Recently, high-definition TV and 5.1 ch surround sound systems have been made available for watching 3D movies at home. In the near future, more realistic display systems such as "Super Hi-Vision" will be developed and introduced into our homes. However, these types of visual or auditory display systems may require the allocation of a large space for fixed, specialized equipment, and they tend to be expensive. Moreover, compared to the amount of free contents on the Web, highly realistic contents for such systems are still lacking. In this study, we propose a spatial audiovisual display system that comprises multiple mobile devices and a Web-based design system, which allows average users to create and share spatial audio content on the Web.
