Abstract:
A method and processor system are provided for adapting an acoustic rendering of an audio source to a visual rendering of an image-based object. Such visual rendering may be in virtual-reality (VR) or in augmented-reality (AR). The image-based object may be modelled, and an audio object representing the modelled object may be established in an acoustic scene containing the audio source and being associated with the visual rendering. The audio object may be assigned a reverberant and/or absorbent property, and the acoustic rendering may be adapted to the audio object. This way, the acoustic rendering may be adapted to image-based objects, and a user may perceive the acoustic rendering as better matching the visual rendering.
