Abstract
A neuromorphic sound localisation system is proposed. It employs two microphones and a pair of silicon cochleae with address event interface for front-end processing. This allows subsequent processing to be implemented with spike-based algorithms. The system is adaptive and supports online learning. Its localisation capability was tested with white noise and pure tone stimuli, with an average error of around 3deg in the -45deg to 45deg range.
