Atmos is an encoding scheme for multichannel audio w/height information via Dolby Digital Plus or TrueHD, most commonly used for speakers setups. On iOS and tvOS devices, you can take this multichannel audio and apply spatial audio w/head tracking on top of it. There is Dolby Atmos for Headphones, but only works with certain content and it doesn't even work as well as Dolby Headphone did. And yes, no head tracking available. And it only works with the Xbox and Windows, and no mobile devices.
Auro 3D as far as I can tell is not even a format, it's a proprietary sound expansion system that nobody has except some high-end AVRs, and its headphones implementation only exists in theory and AFAIK nowhere in the market (though I haven't looked too hard, if you know of something please point to it).
Sony's audio is even worse, I've had it for years on my Android devices and Sony headsets, but could never use it because it only works with a few Sony approved music services and not with any video streaming ones, which is where spatial audio shines. And again, no head tracking.
