Service-Oriented, Ubiquitous, Network-Driven Sound (SOUNDS) is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions European Training Network (MSCA-ETN) that intends to reshape the way in which we interact with the sounds that can be captured, processed, and reproduced from the ubiquity of mobile and wearable devices in our everyday environments. Often compromised by the limited capabilities and constraints of a single user device, the SOUNDS MSCA-ITN will push audio technology to a new level by exploiting network-enabled cooperation between devices, leading to the provision of enhanced hearing assistance, creation of immersive audio experiences, advanced voice control, and much more. It is anticipated that this paradigm will eventually result in an entirely new way of designing and using audio technology, by considering audio as a service enabled through shared infrastructure as opposed to device-specific functionality...
