Arrangements and methods for 3d audio generation

Abstract

A headset arrangement for virtual reality, augmented reality or mixed reality applications is configured to induce natural directional pinna cues. The arrangement comprises a support structure configured to be arranged on a user's head and to hold a display in front of the user's eyes. For each ear, the support structure comprises at least a first sound source and a second sound source, wherein, when the support structure is arranged on a user's head, the first sound source and the second sound source are arranged such that at the concha of the user a primary sound incidence direction of sound emitted by the first sound source is essentially opposing to a primary sound incidence direction of sound emitted by the second sound source. The primary sound incidence direction is the direction from which the sound emitted by a sound source reaches the concha for the first time.
