The Application of Nanofibrous Resonant Membranes for Room Acoustics [PDF]
Nanomaterials, 2023 Solitary sound absorbing elements exist; however, their construction is massive and heavy, which largely limits their use. These elements are generally made of porous materials that serve to reduce the amplitude of the reflected sound waves.

SoundCam: A Dataset for Finding Humans Using Room Acoustics [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 A room's acoustic properties are a product of the room's geometry, the objects within the room, and their specific positions. A room's acoustic properties can be characterized by its impulse response (RIR) between a source and listener location, or roughly inferred from recordings of natural signals present in the room.

Room Acoustics (lecture notes) [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Room acoustics is commonly regarded and studied as an applied subdiscipline of engineering acoustics. It is likely for this reason that many textbooks and lecture notes on the topic provide a too brief, unsystematic, and incomplete physical basics of the theory, while focusing on the practical aspects of calculation, measurement, assessment, and ...

Cognitive load associated with speaking clearly in reverberant rooms [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCommunication is a fundamental aspect of human interaction, yet many individuals must speak in less-than-ideal acoustic environments daily. Adapting their speech to ensure intelligibility in these varied settings can impose a significant cognitive burden.

An Evaluation of Room Acoustics in Rooms Used for Turkish Melodic Music
Megaron, 2015 Developing since the early 1920s, the discipline of room acoustics has made important strides in correlating subjective and objective, or measurable, values for music rooms.

Sensitivity of Acoustic Voice Quality Measures in Simulated Reverberation Conditions [PDF]
BioengineeringRoom reverberation can affect oral/aural communication and is especially critical in computer analysis of voice. High levels of reverberation can distort voice recordings, impacting the accuracy of quantifying voice production quality and vocal health ...

The effect of room acoustics on the sleep quality of healthy sleepers
Noise and Health, 2016 Introduction: Noise is one of the factors that can seriously disturb sleep, and sound volume is an important factor in this context. One strategy involves avoiding exposure to sounds in the night, while entail the minimization of background noise in a ...

Real Acoustic Fields: An Audio-Visual Room Acoustics Dataset and Benchmark [PDF]
arXivWe present a new dataset called Real Acoustic Fields (RAF) that captures real acoustic room data from multiple modalities. The dataset includes high-quality and densely captured room impulse response data paired with multi-view images, and precise 6DoF pose tracking data for sound emitters and listeners in the rooms.
