Center "look" of measured HRTF binaural decoders
The binaural decoders generated from measured HRTFs (Listen, CIPIC) currently encode without regard to the individual subject's "look direction". That is, it is assumed each subject is looking at [0, 0] during measurement. In practice, the true look direction varies somewhat with each subject.
Measuring the (band-limited, "pinked") normalized intensity vector will give a reasonable measure of the true "look" of each subject.
Correcting for "look" will bring greater consistency to measured binaural decoders.
