Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to cause AN audio source to be modified in a manner consistent with the corresponding video images once the user and/or a display upon which the images are rendered has been tilted. In regards to a method, an initial virtual position of an audio source is determined. The method also includes determining a tilt angle that defines an angle that an apparatus embodying a display for rendering images has been tilted relative to a reference orientation of the apparatus with respect to a user of the apparatus. The method may also include modifying a virtual position of an audio source based upon the tilt angle and an initial virtual position of the audio source. The method may also include causing the audio source to be rendered in accordance with the virtual position as modified.
