Media Device Orchestration for Immersive Spatial Audio Reproduction

Whilst it is possible to create exciting, immersive listening experiences with current spatial audio technology, the required systems are generally difficult to install in a standard living room. However, in any living room there is likely to already be a range of loudspeakers (such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and so on). ____Media device orchestration" (MDO) is the concept of utilising all available devices to augment the reproduction of a media experience.
