Spatial audio rendering of vehicle sounds in a vehicle interior

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions for reproducing a simulated soundscape within a first vehicle that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:

• receiving selection of the simulated soundscape within a vehicle cabin associated with the first vehicle;
• receiving a sensor input associated with the first vehicle;
• identifying a soundscape element based on the selected simulated soundscape;
• determining a sound corresponding to the soundscape element based on the sensor input;
• determining a location within the vehicle cabin of the sound based on the selected simulated soundscape;
• and
• causing playback of the sound within the vehicle cabin based on the location.

A system comprising:

• a memory storing instructions for an audio enhancement application;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory that implements the audio enhancement application by performing the steps of:
• receiving selection of a simulated soundscape within a vehicle cabin associated with a first vehicle;
• receiving a sensor input associated with the first vehicle;
• identifying a soundscape element based on the selected simulated soundscape;
• determining a sound corresponding to the soundscape element based on the sensor input;
• determining a location within the vehicle cabin of the sound based on the selected simulated soundscape;
• and
• causing playback of the sound within the vehicle cabin based on the location.
