Perceptually Adaptive Multi-Microphone Audio System for Inclusive Group Communication and Environmental Awareness (2025)
Report
McGregor, I. (2025). Perceptually Adaptive Multi-Microphone Audio System for Inclusive Group Communication and Environmental Awareness. Applied Informatics, Edinburgh Napier University

This system proposes a perceptually grounded, user-behaviour-adaptive audio enhancement architecture that supports clarity, spatial stability, and inclusive listening in complex environments. Leveraging a triangulated microphone array (left ear, righ... Read More about Perceptually Adaptive Multi-Microphone Audio System for Inclusive Group Communication and Environmental Awareness.

Perceptually Adaptive Speech Clarity System for Reverberant Environments (2025)
Report
McGregor, I. (2025). Perceptually Adaptive Speech Clarity System for Reverberant Environments. Not commissioned – self-initiated research and disclosure

This document outlines a perceptually adaptive audio system designed to improve the intelligibility of spoken announcements in highly reverberant environments. Using speech buffering, pacing modification, spectral shaping, and real-time feedback, the... Read More about Perceptually Adaptive Speech Clarity System for Reverberant Environments.

A Perceptual Approach to HRTF Personalisation: From Localisation to Spatial Literacy (2025)
Report
Mcgregor, I. (2025). A Perceptual Approach to HRTF Personalisation: From Localisation to Spatial Literacy

Efforts to personalise Head-Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) have traditionally focused on anatomical accuracy, modelling the head, ears and torso to predict how sound should reach an individual’s ears. While valuable, such approaches often require... Read More about A Perceptual Approach to HRTF Personalisation: From Localisation to Spatial Literacy.
