  • Abstract
    The paper introduces Wave Field Synthesis (WFS). The technology was created at Delft University of Technology 20 years ago. Since then it has been refined to deliver true immersive sound. Application areas include cinema (with a priority on the combination with 3D video), theme parks, VR installations and, in the long run, home theatres. The paper introduces the basic technology and then focuses on applications of WFS and special requirements.
