• General Description: Mesh2HRTF is an open-source project providing an easy-to-use software package targeting researchers in the field of binaural audio. Mesh2HRTF reads geometrical data, calculates the corresponding sound field, and outputs HRTFs as a SOFA file.
• Methods: To support multiple computer platforms, the concept of Mesh2HRTF focuses on a command-line numerical core called NumCalc implementing the 3D Burton-Miller collocation BEM coupled with the multi-level fast multipole method (ML-FMM). Other parts of Mesh2HRT provide add-ons for Blender for geometry preprocessing and tools for Python and Matlab for post-processing and visualization purposes.
• Technical Remarks: The development of Mesh2HRTF was initiated at the Acoustics Research Institute (ARI) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and programmed by Harald Ziegelwanger using the numerical core basis from Wolfgang Kreuzer under the lead of Piotr Majdak. Mesh2HRTF 1.1.2 is a collaborative work of ARI and Fabian Brinkmann from the Audio Communication Group of the Technical University of Berlin.
