ABSTRACT:
A method of detecting localization of an acoustic image, in which an acoustic impulse is emitted from a sound source to a dummy of a human head, an acoustic sensor is provided to a portion of the dummy's ears, and the response waveform is received by the acoustic sensor. This enables the detection of what effects are derived from interruption, reflection, and the like of a tone due to the human head. The received response waveform is analyzed and parameters for an acoustic image localization system are obtained. The acoustic image localization system comprising a delay circuit, a filter and an amplification controller sets the parameters into the delay circuit, the filter and the amplification controller, so that the detected localization of an acoustic image is reproduced.
