Binaural Microphone

This project was made so that you could make binaural recordings which are recordings that are very realistic sounding. These recordings are only realistic sounding because they are recorded in a similar way that people hear sound. Also these recordings are only realistic sounding when listening with good headphones.

An example of binaural recording is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itLxXeyM2aM (this is not my video)
