During air flight, passengers often use entertainment system to enjoy the journey. However, the traditional personal headsets device used with flight entertainment system came out some cumbersome due to vary inconvenience. This proposal is to propose a solution of current sound system problem occurred in aircrafts, it will make passengers be more convenient, the system which is going to be proposed is called directional sound system.
Problem and solution For instance, when one passenger needs to get out of their seats to use the facility, which makes the other seat passenger has to unplug the headsets or take of the earphone. The continuous movements are around the seating area. Further more, the cord of the headsets makes passenger to be inconvenient, sometimes the wire makes the cup flip over or other small accident. In the other hand, the flight attendants take headsets aggregately, because the ground personnel have to pack all of the used headsets into a new PE bag for next flight, which cause unnecessary waste including money and time. But, we always take it for granted, taking off earphone for giving way or for talking with other passengers and re-pack the earphone by bag. However, do we have alternative? Bluetooth earphone maybe can be a selection, but, there is still something on your head and not really convenient at all.

    Sound localisation is the process of determining the location of a particular source of sound, and this is achieved through the use of binaural and monaural cues. To investigate what factors affect the ability to localise sound, one hundred and eighty six psychology students underwent an experiment where subjects indicated what direction they heard a set of keys coming from when the keys were shaken above the participant’s head on three different positions of the midline. The four conditions in this study included head movement, no head movement, normal pinnae and distorted pinnae. As hypothesised, sound localisation improved significantly when the head was mobilized rather than immobilised, in conjunction to the pinnae being normal rather than distorted. These findings suggest that sound localisation is most successful when the head is mobile and the pinnae is normal.…
