The team presented their unique wave-based interactive system for the practical rendering of global sound propagation effects in games including diffraction. The system can be used in complex game and VR scenes and supports moving directional sources and listeners.
"Games and mixed reality must render a believable soundscape for the listener that situates characters and sounds within rich 3D worlds. Project Triton aids this task by physically modeling how sound propagates within a scene given its shape and materials," states the abstract. The system is said to automatically model immersive sound propagation effects like sound occlusion and reverberation.
