At this stage, one has to wonder just how much need there really is for
matching HRTF's. I'm not so convinced these dys as I once was, at least if
headtracking is properly implemented, the few "fixed" parameters are
matched (like inter-ear distances) and there are good visual cues as there
are in modern VR systems.

But this assumption could actually be investigated/studied, couldn't it?
Best,

P.S.: So, the VR companies will solve the questions for which there is
no university or AES paper?

We can definitely re-learn/reprogram our perception of stimulus, as long
as there are other cues to back it up.
This has been proven via glasses that alter the orientation of the visual
field. After a while the brain adapts, and presents this as normal.
I think that once learn your brain can remember this too…

Indeed I have found this to be the true of different HRTFs too, using my
visual panning cues to learn the HRTF.
This is even easier with head tracked VR video.

Maybe a silly question...
But how much work has been done on the self-consistency of HRTFs? I'm
aware that ear-wax, colds, which way round I sleep, etc can affect the
level and HF response of one ear to another. And clothing, haircuts etc
must significantly change the acoustic signal round our heads.
So are measured HRTFs consistent over time? Or do we re-calibrate
ourselves on a continuous basis?
If the latter is true, then I can see that a generic HRTF could work if
we were given some method (and time for) calibration.
