Title:


    Multiple Beam-Forming Area Sound Enhancement (MUBASE) and Stereophonic Area Sound Reproduction (SASR) System

Description:


    We proposed a novel technology called Multiple Beam-forming Area Sound Enhancement (MUBASE) to pick up only sound in a particular area. We also proposed a technology called Stereophonic Area Sound Reproduction (SASR) to reproduce area sound with newly stereophonic effect. In this paper we present a system that users can feel high realistic sound as if they are in a remote place. The system consists of MUBASE and SASR, and operates in conjunction with images of the remote place.
