Hi Bruce; That's interesting about bone conduction. What sort of directional cues have you been able to give the user through this system? Is it just IID and ITD, or have you found a way to synthasise HRTF using bone conduction? It all sounds very interesting, and I'm about to have a look at your web pages.
