摘要：
Mechanisms are provided to implement an echolocation functionality within a virtual environment. The mechanisms receive graphical information for a virtual environment, and analyzes the graphical information to detect a virtual object present in the virtual environment. One or more characteristics of the detected virtual object are identified, which may include a relative location of the virtual object to a virtual representation of a user in the virtual environment. Echo data is generated that defines characteristics of an audio output that represents the virtual object in a manner emulating an echo of a sound emitted from the virtual representation of the user in the virtual environment. Output of the audio output by the one or more audio output devices is controlled based on the generated echo data.
