This paper presents the simulation, robustness and implementation of two- and three-dimensional auditory occupancy grids (AOGs) on a mobile robot. In two dimensions, AOGs are successfully applied on a three-microphone robot in four-sound-source environments, first in a simulation and then on a physical robot. The two-dimensional AOGs are also found to be robust to source positioning. In three dimensions, AOGs are successful on a simulated four-microphone robot in four-source environments and are found to also be robust to source positioning. AOGs are shown to be a viable method for gaining knowledge about the acoustical environment.
