Dr. Nils Peters

Assistant Professor (Electronic & Elect. Engineering)

 


Dr. Nils Peters is an Assistant Professor for acoustics and signal processing at Trinity College Dublin. Before joining TCD he was an Associate Professor at the International Audio Laboratories Erlangen (a joint research institute of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität and Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS), and previously a 3D Audio research lead at Qualcomm HQ in San Diego. He holds a PhD in Music Technology from McGill University, Canada, and did postdoctoral work at University of California, Berkeley. He earned an MSc in Electrical and Audio Engineering from Graz University of Technology, Austria, where he also studied classical guitar. He serves as AES Co-Chair of the Technical Committee for Spatial Audio and is a steering board member of IEEE Internet of Sounds Emerging Technologies Initiative. His research focuses on audio signal processing, machine learning, spatial audio, XR, human-computer-interaction, and psychoacoustics. As an audio engineer, he did recording, postproduction, and sound design.
