Welcome to Mesh2HRTF

Mesh2HRTF is an open-source project aiming at providing an easy-to-use software package for the numerical calculation of head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). It targets researchers and enthusiasts in the field of binaural spatial audio. In a nutshell, Mesh2HRTF reads 3D head meshes, calculates the corresponding sound field and outputs HRTFs. To support multiple computer platforms, the concept of Mesh2HRTF is to focus on a command-line tool, which forms the numerical core, i.e., an implementation of the 3-dimensional Burton-Miller collocation BEM coupled with the multi-level fast multipole method (ML-FMM), and to provide add-ons for existing cross-platform applications for the preprocessing of geometrical data and for the visualization of results.

Mesh2HRTF 1.0 and above

Mesh2HRTF 1.0 is contained in the develop branch of the Mesh2HRTF repository. It works with Blender v2.80 and above. See the history file in the develop branch for a detailed list of changes. Visit the Mesh2HRTF 1.0 and above documentation

Mesh2HRTF 0.5.0 can be found in the release section. It is the last release that works with Blender v2.79 and below. It is not maintained anymore and using Mesh2HRTF 1.0 is highly recommended.
