AboutAbout the lab
Taking on the measurement, evaluation, control, and reproduction of sound fields
From the standpoint of architectural acoustics, the lab studies how to measure, evaluate, control, and reproduce sound in enclosed spaces such as rooms.
In the past, the lab worked on applying active noise control to noise barriers, as well as on the adaptive algorithms needed for such control.
In sound field reproduction, the lab is examining ways to rationally combine technically accurate methods with the staging techniques used in artistic settings.
Recently, aiming to apply sound field reproduction systems directly to human welfare, the lab has added acoustic welfare engineering (acoustic engineering for human welfare) as a keyword for its activities.
Key terms
- Sound field
- The state of a space through which sound travels. It refers to how sound spreads and resonates inside a room.
- Sound field reproduction
- Technology that recreates the acoustic conditions of one space in another place, using loudspeakers or similar devices.
- Auditory filter
- Processing that models how sound is heard by the human ear. It is used to evaluate sounds and sound fields in a way that is closer to how people hear them.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies the measurement, evaluation, control, and reproduction of sound fields. While focusing mainly on relatively small enclosed spaces, it also considers the social implementation of sound field reproduction systems and their use for human welfare.
