DIRECTIONAL ACOUSTIC SENSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17731742 titled 'DIRECTIONAL ACOUSTIC SENSOR
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a directional acoustic sensor that includes a support with two separate portions facing each other. The support has a plurality of first resonators extending from one portion and a plurality of second resonators extending from the other portion. The first ends of the first resonators and the second ends of the second resonators form an intersecting structure in a specific arrangement.
- The sensor includes a support with two separate portions facing each other.
- The support has a plurality of first resonators extending from one portion.
- The support also has a plurality of second resonators extending from the other portion.
- The first ends of the first resonators and the second ends of the second resonators form an intersecting structure in a specific arrangement.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Directional microphones for improved sound recording in noisy environments.
- Sonar systems for underwater navigation and detection.
- Acoustic sensors for surveillance and security purposes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Improved directionality of acoustic sensors for better sound localization.
- Reduction of background noise interference in audio recordings.
- Enhanced sensitivity and accuracy of sonar systems.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved audio quality in recordings and communication systems.
- Increased accuracy and range in sonar systems.
- Enhanced surveillance capabilities with improved acoustic sensors.
Original Abstract Submitted
A directional acoustic sensor includes: a support including a first support portion and a second support portion that are separated from each other and face each other; a plurality of first resonators extending in a length direction thereof from the first support portion of the support; and a plurality of second resonators extending in the length direction thereof from the second support portion of the support and facing the plurality of first resonators, wherein each first resonator of the plurality of first resonators has a first end, wherein each second resonator of the plurality of second resonators has a second end, and wherein, in a first resonator arrangement of a region where the plurality of first resonators and the plurality of second resonators face each other, the first ends of the plurality of first resonators and the second ends of the plurality of second resonators form an intersecting structure.
