could you do it the other way around?

how accurately can we recreate a 3d space from sound? what assumptions/information would you need to make it more accurate?

Yes. Look at the setup/calibration involved with Soundbar type audio systems.

awesome, thanks for the lead!

i will look it up, i am mostly curious about it's resolution. for instance, my unqualified hunch is that the algorithm couldn't detect the size of the dog in my room based on a microphone recording.

i guess the more calibration involved the easier the problem becomes. but that is no fun. :)
