Abstract
Realistic audio is a requisite part of an immersive VR system. Previous research primarily focused on sound transmission modeling, e.g. room acoustics modeling. A progressive sounding object model based on modal synthesis is proposed in this article to integrate sound source modeling with sound transmission simulation. It is characterized by direct construction from geometry data plus a handful of material properties of the virtual object, progressive representation in multiple levels and natural binaural modeling.
