    Welcome to Virtual Acoustics 2022!

    In this course, you will learn the fundamental techniques of room acoustic modeling and spatial audio processing.

    The Virtual Acoustics course will be run in remote mode. The lectures (60-90min) are provided as videos one week before the corresponding contact session. The contact session gives time to discuss, ask and reflect on the lecture material. In addition, there will be a Matlab demo session 45mins to explain a new task for the home assignment and/or explanation of the correct solutions for the previous week's assignment.

    The main teachers will be prof. Tapio Lokki and prof. Sebastian J. Schlecht. In addition, MSc Chris Hold and MSc Nils Meyer-Kahlen will be teaching assistants, in particular for the home assignments.

    Course communication is done via Slack. Please sign in and join #virtual-acoustics-2022
