Abstract:
In respect of virtual reality content of a scene for presentation to a user in a virtual reality (VR) space, the VR content comprising spatial audio captured by an audio capture device at an audio capture location, and based on a virtual location of a user relative to a virtual audio capture location in the virtual reality space that corresponds to the audio capture location; providing for audible presentation of the spatial audio when the virtual location is within a threshold distance with the spatial audio effect such that the one or more sounds are perceived to originate from one or more directions in the virtual reality space in corresponding to the directional information; and providing for audible presentation of the spatial audio when the virtual location is beyond the threshold distance such the one or more sounds are audibly presented with an ambient audio effect.
