Method and apparatuses for implementing a head tracking headset

A method comprising:

• receiving at least one of position and orientation of a first head-mounted device in relation to a first user device, wherein the at least one of the position and orientation received is used to train a model using machine learning;
• detecting input data indicative of a change in the at least one of the position and orientation of the first head-mounted device in relation to the first user device;
• determining at least one signal quality parameter based on the input data, wherein the at least one signal quality parameter is measured between the first head-mounted device and the first user device;
• and
• determining a filter pair corresponding with a direction to which a spatial audio signal is rendered based at least in part on the at least one signal quality parameter and the model so as to control spatial audio signal reproduction to take effect the change in the at least one of the position and orientation of the first head-mounted device during rendering of the spatial audio signal.

A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable program code portions stored therein, the computer-executable program code portions comprising program code instructions for:

• receiving at least one of position and orientation of a first head-mounted device in relation to a first user device, wherein the at least one of the position and orientation received is used to train a model using machine learning;
• detecting input data indicative of a change in the at least one of the position and orientation of the first head-mounted device in relation to the first user device;
• determining at least one signal quality parameter based on the input data, wherein the at least one signal quality parameter is measured between the first head-mounted device and the first user device;
• and
• determining a filter pair corresponding with a direction to which a spatial audio signal is rendered based at least in part on the at least one signal quality parameter and the model so as to control spatial audio signal reproduction to take effect the change in the at least one of the position and orientation of the first head-mounted device during rendering of the spatial audio signal.
