The co-founder of San Diego Startup Week, Austin Neudecker,said he believes San Diego could become a new leader in the world of virtual reality. <\/p>\n
We have tremendous engineers coming out of some of the best research institutions and companies here inSan Diego,\" Neudecker said in an interview with NBC 7 on Wednesday. <\/p>\n
One San Diego-based company in particular -- Ossic -- is paving the way. <\/p>\n
The startup has created new types of headphones that take virtual reality sound fromtwo-dimensional, likeyou would hear from a television orvideo game,to 3-D sound. <\/p>\n
3-D sound is kind of like how you hear in real life,\" said Sally Kellaway, creative director of Ossic. \"When youre listening to anything in real life, you get 360 degrees: you can listen to anything at any time. <\/p>\n
Kellaway said they do this by customizing the headsets to each person'shead and ears. <\/p>\n
Ossic currently has a program thatdisplays musical orbs floating through the air. When you touch them with your controller in virtual reality, you can move them around, hearing the music from all sides. <\/p>\n
