An embedded P2P-based positional audio system in virtual environments

Networked virtual environments are increasingly used for collaboration tasks and other interactive applications. While the graphics in such virtual worlds are usually three-dimensional, interactive 3D voice support is still in its infancy. Here we describe our demonstration system that supports P2P-based positional audio and interactive voice communication with the SecondLife platform.
