Sound Interaction / Royal Society's Summer Science Exhibition 2015

Sound Interaction / Royal Society's Summer Science Exhibition 2015 The facebok page relates to a group of researchers studying the effects of sound interaction in ever Why can’t a microphone hear like a human?

Humans have a highly developed hearing ability, which scientists are trying to replicate in machines. Humans have evolved the skill to make sense of sounds even in noisy environments, but audio technology can’t do this yet. In our exhibit you’ll find out about research to make machines hear as well as we do so that voice-activated technology, robots and speech recognition systems work reliably. Humans have only two ears but the brain has an astonishing ability to sort out the meaning of the sounds it receives. Machines don’t have such clever processing but can try to compensate using more than two ‘ears’. However, every place in every room has different acoustic characteristics, which change the sound in an unpredictable way. Our research aims to develop technology that can extract meaning from sound, including reverberation, and detect where it’s coming from, so that voice recognition systems work well in every space.

A room that re-create any other room!

A room that re-create any other room!

Sitting inside can sound just like being in a cramped car or a massive cathedral.
