BRIR data set for interactive listener translation in two rooms

This BRIR data set was measured with a Kemar 45BA at 9 different positions along a defined translation line with a length of 2m in two different rooms, a listening laboratory (T60 = 0.27s) and a seminar room (T60 = 1.0s). At each position BRIRs for a full 360° head rotation with an azimuth resolution of 4° were captured. Two Genelec 1030A loudspeakers served as the sound sources, one place in the fron of the line, one at the side. In addition, omni-directional room impulse responses were determined of the 9 positions at the center the head in both rooms. The data set is of interest to study dynamic binaural synthesis for walking towards or past a sound source in two different room acoustical settings. The same source and receiver setup was used in both rooms, therefore the direct sound and its progress along the given translation line is similar.
