Bfgkatz: /* General purpose database: */ Fritz update

The [http://sofacoustics.org/data main SOFA repository] aims at collect the worldwide available HRTFs, BRIRs, DRIRs, and other SOFA-related data at a single place. It is just in the process of being created: Partial download, metadata access, and database search is not available (yet, we are investigating the possibility of using [http://www.opendap.org/ OPeNDAP] for SOFA repositories). Currently, the data can be accessed and downloaded as they are and the metadata are provided in the particular files.

== General purpose [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database database]: ==

Standard (in-the-ear canal) HRTFs of humans:
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/ari ARI]: HRTFs from the [http://www.kfs.oeaw.ac.at/hrtf ARI database]. In-the-ear HRTFs and DTFs for over 100 listeners.
** hrtf, dtf: HRTFs and DTFs, respectively, equalized between 300 Hz and 18 kHz
** hrtf b, dtf b: HRTFs and DTFs, equalized between 50 Hz and 18 kHz for hi-fi auralizations
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/ari%20(altb) ARI (ALTB)]: HRTFs from the ARI database. Measurements for some of the listeners from the ARI database, repeated and evaluated a few years later, see [http://www.researchgate.net/publication/236111930_Sound_localization_in_individualized_and_non-individualized_crosstalk_cancellation_systems Majdak et al. (2013)].
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/cipic CIPIC]: HRTFs from the [http://interface.cipic.ucdavis.edu/data/ CIPIC database]. 45 listeners, partially antropometric data available.
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/riec RIEC]: Far-field HRTFs from the [http://www.riec.tohoku.ac.jp/pub/hrtf/index.html RIEC] database of over 100 human listeners. ''(Credit: Kajni Watanabe, Japan)''

HRTFs of artificial heads:
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/mit MIT-KEMAR]: HRTFs from [http://sound.media.mit.edu/resources/KEMAR/ MIT of the KEMAR] dummy head. Reference HRTFs used in many publications.
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/ari%20(artificial) ARI (ARTIFICIAL)] HRTFs of mannequins (dummy heads) measured at ARI using the same setup as for human listeners:
** NH169: HRTFs, DTFs, and raw data of a printed head of the corresponding human listener
** NH172: HRTFs, DTFs, raw and reference data of the dummy head Neumann KU 100. Also part of Club Fritz, see below.
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/fhk FHK]: HRTFs from the [http://www.audiogroup.web.fh-koeln.de/ku100hrir.html Fachhochschule Köln] of the dummy-head Neumann K100. Gapless data, high spatial resolution provided. ''(Credit: Benjamin Bernschütz, Germany).''
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/scut SCUT]: Near-field HRTFs from SCUT database of the KEMAR (Radius: 0.2 to 1.0 m). ''(Credit: Bosun Xie, China)''
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/tu-berlin TU-Berlin]: HRTFs from [https://dev.qu.tu-berlin.de/projects/measurements/repository/show/2010-11-kemar-anechoic/mat TU-Berlin of the KEMAR] dummy-head. HRTFs for several distances (>0.5 m). ''(Credit: Hagen Wierstorf, Germany)''
* '''New:''' [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/clubfritz Club Fritz]: HRTFs of Neumann KU 100 measured as part of the Club Fritz project where many institutions measured the exact same artificial head, see [http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/JSTSP.2015.2400417 Andreopoulou et al, (2015)] ''(Credit: Brian Katz, France)''.

Special HRTFs:
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/ari%20(bte) ARI (BTE)]: Behind-the-ear HRTFs and DTFs from the [http://www.kfs.oeaw.ac.at/hrtf ARI database].

DRIRs:
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/database/oldenburg Oldenburg] DRIRs from [http://medi.uni-oldenburg.de/hrir/html/download.html Oldenburg]. Recordings in an office under several conditions ''(Credit: Stephan Ewert, Germany)''.

== Headphone impulse responses (HpIRs) ==
'''New: HpIRs of humans: '''
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/headphones/ari ARI]: HpIRs from the ARI database. Single headphone, five measurements (with repositioned headphone in-between) for over 100 listeners.
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/headphones/btdei BT-DEI]: HpIRs from the [http://padva.dei.unipd.it/?page_id=345 BT-DEI] database provided. 16 Listeners, 3 headphones ''(Credit: Michele Geronazzo, Italy)''.

== Special purpose: ==

* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/amt amt]: HRTFs for the various models from the [http://amtoolbox.sourceforge.net AMToolbox]
* [http://sofacoustics.org/data/sofa_api_mo sofa_api_mo] HRTFs as examples for the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics/ SOFA API for Matlab/Octave]

== Other repositories ==

This is a list of other repositories providing HRTFs, BRIRs, and DRIRs available as SOFA files.
