Anyone who has ever played a game recently is well aware of the dramatic improvements made in visual realism. On the flip side, the lag in audio realism has hindered the potential for true ...

The folks at Google's Magenta project have unveiled a hardware interface for an algorithm-based synthesizer that uses a deep neural network to generate completely new sounds. Musicians drag a finger ...

The first artificial intelligence algorithm to pass the "Turing Test for sound" has been created, capable of producing sounds that fool humans into thinking they are real. Researchers from the ...

In creating what looks to be a simple children's musical instrument -- a xylophone with keys in the shape of zoo animals -- computer scientists have demonstrated that sound can be controlled by ...

In context: Modeling sounds in a VR environment is extremely complex. For example, striking a wine glass at different points will produce different sounds. Likewise, a falling plate shattering is not ...

Sound design has been vastly simplified because of the innate unscripted nature of VR simulations, but a new algorithm from researchers at Stanford could finally change that. Share on Facebook (opens ...

It seems that there are few jobs left that computers can’t edge into somehow. A US team has got a computer to match sounds with silent video to an impressively efficient degree. It’s a complicated ...

WASHINGTON, September 14, 2021 -- Creating an individualized listening experience for each passenger has been an ambition for the auto industry for decades. The acoustically changing nature of the car ...

Producing realistic sound models in VR is tricky, even compared to conventional video games. You don't always know how objects will sound in a given environment or where the listener will be, and you ...
