title = "A database of head-related transfer function and morphological measurements",
abstract = "A database of head-related transfer function (HRTF) and morphological measurements of human subjects and mannequins is presented. Data-driven HRTF estimation techniques require large datasets of measured HRTFs and morphological data, but only a few such databases are freely available. This paper describes an on-going project to measure HRTFs and corresponding 3D morphological scans. For a given subject, 648 HRTFs are measured at a distance of 0.76 m in an anechoic chamber and 3D scans of the subject{\textquoteright}s head and upper torso are acquired using structured-light scanners. The HRTF data are stored in the standardized “SOFA format” (spatially-oriented format for acoustics) while scans are stored in the Polygon File Format. The database is freely available online.",

note = "Funding Information: We wish to thank all subjects who provide consent to have their HRTFs and morphological measurements made. We also thank A. Sheron and R. Sorenson for helping with early design ideas for the custom-built chair, and J. Hollingsworth for his help with machining parts of the chair. This work was sponsored by the Sony Corporation of America, and is approved by the Institutional Review Board for human subjects research at Princeton University.
