Announcing Special Session 3: “3D Audio: Nonlinear Acoustics and Automotive” – Chairpersons: Valeria Bruschi & Daniel Pinardi
This special session is focused on 3D audio systems in the automotive industry, with a focus on nonlinear acoustics.
The creation of an immersive sound experience in the car cabin aims to enhance sound reproduction, improve hand-free communication and produce targeted driver’s alerts. In addition, the car audio system could be affected by nonlinearities that must be taken into account for 3D measurements and simulations.
We are pleased to invite you to submit scientific contributions on the following topics but are not limited to:
- Nonlinearities in 3D audio car systems.
- Sound synthesis for electric cars and Active Vehicle Alert Systems (AVAS)
- Active Noise Control (ANC) systems in automotive environments.
- 3-DoF and 6-DoF auralization of car sound systems.
- Algorithms and practical implementations of 3D audio techniques for personalized listening experiences in the car cabin.
- 3D audio technology to provide the driver with precise directional information (Augmented Reality).
Chairpersons:
Daniel Pinardi received the M.S. degree (cum laude) in mechanical engineering from the University of Parma, Italy, in July 2016, with a thesis on loudspeaker modeling, and the Ph.D. degree in industrial engineering from the University of Parma, in March 2020, with a thesis on the design of microphone, hydrophone, and camera arrays for spatial audio recording.
He is a Research Assistant of Prof. Angelo Farina at University of Parma since 2016, mainly specialized in spatial audio, design of transducer arrays, acoustics simulations and 3D auralization, applied to automotive field, and underwater acoustics.
Valeria Bruschi received the M.Sc. degree (cum laude) in electronic engineering in 2018 at Università Politecnica delle Marche, Ancona, Italy, with a thesis on immersive sound reproduction in real environments. She obtained the PhD degree in 2023 at the Department of Information Engineering (DII) of the same university and she was a Postdoc researcher at the same department from February 2023 to March 2024. She has been a research Assistant Professor at DII since April 2024. Her current research interests are mainly focused on digital audio signal processing (DSP), with particular attention to adaptive DSP algorithms for linear/nonlinear systems identification, audio equalization, and immersive audio systems. She is a member of the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
