US Patent 12137335 Method for navigating multidimensional space using sound

Systems and methods for navigating a virtual space using sound are described. Some examples include a multidimensional sound space with a plurality of nodes associated with a plurality of audio sources. Some examples of the system and methods include receiving a first user navigational input, determining a first user location in the multidimensional sound space, and playing a binaural sound associated with a node based on the first user location and the node's location. Some examples further include receiving a second user navigational input, determining a second user location in the multidimensional sound space, and playing a stereophonic sound associated with the node based on the second user location and the node's location.
