ELECTRONIC SOUND SCREENING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ACCOUSTICALLY IMPROVING THE ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A flexible apparatus for, and method of, acoustically improving an environment permits manual adjustment by one or more local or remote users using a simple graphical interface and automatic adjustment of the system parameters once the manual adjustment is performed. The inputs are weighted by distance from the physical apparatus. The apparatus includes a receiver, a converter, an analyser, a processor and a sound generator. The acoustic energy impinges on the receiver and is converted to an electrical signal by the converter. The analyser receives the electrical signal from the receiver, analyzes the electrical signal, and generates data analysis signals in response to the analyzed electrical signal. The processor produces sound signals based on the data analysis signals from the analyser in each critical band. The sound generator provides sound based on the sound signals. This permits the users to define the sound heard in a set space.
