One compromise approach is to embed microphones into the earcups of headphones. These recordings accurately capture the way sound is affected (or ‘shadowed’) by the head and shape of the ears. Making binaural recordings is currently achieved with specialist microphones, many of them even embedded into a mannequin head to give the most realistic sound properties possible. This would have applications in both real-life video – like conference calls – and in augmented reality scenes.Ī newly-published Apple patent application shows this type of binaural recording being made with an iPhone …īinaural recordings are specifically designed to be listened to with headphones, and are intended to give a very immersive experience, where you can clearly hear sound coming from a specific direction. Late last year, Apple was granted a patent for AR headphones which would enable the listener to accurately determine the exact location of sounds in a scene from what are known as binaural recordings.
