Floquet topological insulators for sound

The unique conduction properties of condensed matter systems with topological order have recently inspired a quest for the similar effects in classical wave phenomena. Acoustic topological insulators, in particular, hold the promise to revolutionize our ab ...

Raking the Cocktail Party

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Robin Scheibler

We present the concept of an acoustic rake receiver—a microphone beamformer that uses echoes to improve the noise and interference suppression. The rake idea is well-known in wireless communications; it involves constructively combining different multipath ...

A sound diffusion system for directional sound enhancement

Hervé Lissek, Alain Dufaux, Xavier Falourd, Patrick Marmaroli, Alexandre Delidais, Baptiste Crettaz, Cédric Monchâtre

A loudspeaker array is described including several circular sound emitters that are bunked. One circular sound emitter can be either a circular array of loudspeakers (kind 1) or a toroidal loudspeaker (kind 2). The loudspeaker array can be composed of circ ...

Interactive Real-Time Simulation and Auralization for Modifiable Rooms

Dirk Schröder

To study the effects of any changes to a room or setting on the room acoustics, a framework was developed that enables immediate acoustic and visual feedback to the user. This is achieved by running interactive room acoustics simulations and auralizations ...

Optimization of electroacoustic resonators for semi-active room equalization in the low-frequency range

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet

At low frequencies, standing waves within the room cause large frequency-response variations in the listening environment, such as audio rooms or recording studios. This unwanted phenomenon has a significant impact on the sound quality of an audio system. ...

The Contributions of Sensory Dominance and Attentional Bias to Cross-modal Enhancement of Visual Cortex Excitability

Micah Murray

Approaching or looming sounds (L-sounds) have been shown to selectively increase visual cortex excitability [Romei, V., Murray, M. M., Cappe, C., & Thut, G. Preperceptual and stimulus-selective enhancement of low-level human visual cortex excitability by s ...

Perception and Reproduction of Auditory Spatial Impression

Andreas Walther

As audio reproduction systems evolve to incorporate many loudspeakers, the potential to evoke faithful auditory spatial impressions increases. Psychoacoustic principles of auditory spatial perception, and methods for production and reproduction of acoustic ...

Acoustic Echoes Reveal Room Shape

Martin Vetterli, Yue Lu, Ivan Dokmanic, Reza Parhizkar, Andreas Walther

Imagine that you are blindfolded inside an unknown room. You snap your fingers and listen to the room’s response. Can you hear the shape of the room? Some people can do it naturally, but can we design computer algorithms that hear rooms? We show how to com ...

Practical realization of «smart acoustic materials» by controlling a loudspeaker with the help of a cRIO platform

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet

This presentation describes how to practically implement a digital controller using the compactRIO real-time platform in order to use of a loudspeaker as an electroacoustic absorber for better sound control in listening rooms. ...

Robust Acoustic Source Localization of Emergency Signals from Micro Air Vehicles

Dario Floreano, Felix Stephan Schill, Meysam Basiri

In search and rescue missions, Micro Air Vehicles (MAV's) can assist rescuers to faster locate victims inside a large search area and to coordinate their efforts. Acoustic signals play an important role in outdoor rescue operations. Emergency whistles, as ...
