For more than six decades, scientists have developed binaural models of the human auditory system. Some of them, for instance, the so-called coincidence model and the so-called equalization-and-cancellation model, have indeed been quite successful in explaining basic functions of binaural localization and signal detection. Recently, advances in digital signal processing and the availability of suitable hardware have prepared the ground for applying binaural models in the context of modern technology in many stimulating ways.
