What is binaural cues?

Binaural cues are auditory signals that help locate the direction and distance of sound sources using both ears. There are two primary types: interaural time differences (ITD), which measure the difference in arrival time of sound at each ear, and interaural level differences (ILD), which assess the difference in sound intensity between the ears. These cues allow the brain to triangulate the position of sounds in three-dimensional space, enhancing our ability to perceive and interpret our auditory environment.
