sonocat features.
Our most popular feature is In Situ Sound Absorption, a unique addition to your toolbox designed for professionals who want to examine real-world sound fields. “In situ” means you can take measurements directly on-site, in an existing environment, without needing specialized settings or setups like an impedance tube or an anechoic chamber. All you need is the Sonocat and its software.
Traditional methods for measuring the sound absorption coefficient rely on assumptions about the overall sound field affecting the test material, typically conducted in a controlled laboratory environment. However, in real-world settings, the sound field can be unpredictable and variable due to different sound sources. The ability of a material to absorb sound depends not just on its properties but also on the surrounding environment.
