Live Q&A with Chris Bore - An Acoustic Camera
Chris Bore
Live Q&A with Chris Bore for the talk titled "An Acoustic Camera"
10:03:04 From John Phillips : As a radar engineer, I know God placed a head with sound-absorbing skin and hair between our 2 sensors. Have you trie resulkts after placing a sound-absorbing grid over your 4 x 3 array ? 10:04:53 From Timothy Young : Start with a 1-D array and get that working first. Also agree with what John is saying about having what we call an infinite baffle behind the mics. 10:05:23 From Leonard to Stephane Boucher(Direct Message) : did you get my msgs on LinkedIn? 10:05:48 From Stephane Boucher to Leonard(Direct Message) : I did. I will respond later 10:08:26 From Emanuele Ziglioli : What kind of microphones are you using? Most mics I find only record in the human audio range. It'd be cool recording near 400KHz in order to build a bat detector. See https://www.openacousticdevices.info/audiomoth 10:13:35 From Emanuele Ziglioli : Thank you, how do you go from real to complex? hilbert transform? 10:13:43 From John Phillips : Adafruit have similar $US7 mike+preamp. 10:14:28 From Michael Kirkhart : Here is a link for a potential substitute for the microphone used in this project: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1713 10:23:55 From rakhel : I heard your sensor is detecting the distance of the sound source from your detector is that right ? my understanding is you are just detecting the direction of the sound source and not the distance 10:32:18 From Leonard : don't fool yourself to me = don't drink you're own coolaid 10:33:16 From Emanuele Ziglioli : thank you!
Chris, a question: You say at the very end that you don't care about the distance, it's the direction that you care about. Maybe the question you were answering wasn't fully stated, but I'd thought the point of coloration in the soundscape to reflect distance was one of the driving factors, and the reason for looking at phase shift. Could you elaborate?
