Interaural Time Difference (ITD) is used in the mammalian auditory system to compute the angle of incidence of an acoustic sound-source on the horizontal plane. This paper describes how ITD can be incorporated into a robotic acoustic tracking system to enable the robot to locate and orient towards sound-sources within its environment. We describe a system compiled using cross-correlation and auditory cues that has a lot of potential for robot soundsource localization.
