Abstract
Recently a loudspeaker-based room auralisation (LoRA) system has been developed at CAHR, which combines modern room acoustic modeling techniques with high-order Ambisonics auralisation. The environment provides: (i) a flexible research tool to study the signal processing of the normal, impaired, and aided-impaired auditory system in realistic environments and (ii) a framework to evaluate the effect of different room modeling and auralisation methods on auditory perception. The applicability of such environment is demonstrated using different objective room acoustic measures. Different experimental results are presented, including measures of distance perception and the effect of early reflections on speech intelligibility.
